What is an area converter?

An area converter changes a measurement of surface between units such as square metres, square feet, acres and hectares. It covers metric units (cm², m², hectare, km²) and imperial/US units (ft², yd², acre, mile²).

How it works

Each unit has a fixed ratio to the square metre. The converter turns your value into square metres, then into the unit you want. Area ratios are the square of the matching length ratio — for example 1 ft = 0.3048 m, so 1 ft² = 0.3048² = 0.09290304 m².
