Square Meter

A square meter (m²) is the standard metric unit for measuring area, equal to a square with sides one meter long. It is widely used in housing, landscaping, flooring, and building projects because it fits the scale of typical indoor and outdoor spaces.

Square meters provide a consistent way to compare surface areas across different industries and countries. Converting from m² to ft² or yd² becomes essential when working with US-based measurements or international listings.

Square Kilometer

A square kilometer (km²) is a large metric unit used to measure wide geographic areas. One km² equals one million square meters, making it perfect for cities, forests, lakes, and regions. It is widely used in maps, environmental studies, and land-use planning.

This scale helps governments, scientists, and researchers describe the size of natural and urban spaces with clarity. Converting km² into acres or square miles provides helpful context across measurement systems.
