Area Converter

Convert area values across metric, US customary, and Egyptian agricultural units.

Enter the required values, select the applicable options, and calculate.

Methodology

Formula or transformation

Normalizes area through square meters and applies the target-unit factor.

Variables

  1. Submitted area
  2. Source unit conversion factor
  3. Canonical area in square meters
  4. Target unit conversion factor

Units

  • Square millimeter
  • Square centimeter
  • Square meter
  • Square kilometer
  • Square inch
  • Square foot
