Square meters
The square metre is the SI derived unit of area, defined as the area of a square whose sides each measure exactly one metre. It is the standard unit for floor areas in architecture and real estate, land parcels in urban planning, and cross-sectional areas in engineering. The surface area of a tennis court is approximately 260 m², a standard football pitch about 7,140 m², and a hectare equals exactly 10,000 m².
Hectares
The hectare is a unit of area equal to exactly 10,000 square metres (100 m × 100 m), the standard unit for measuring agricultural land, forest area, and nature reserves internationally. The word derives from the Greek hekaton (hundred) and the French are (100 m²). One hectare is approximately 2.471 acres, and global food production statistics and deforestation rates are almost universally expressed in hectares.
