Area Measurement Units
GPS Pins Area Calculator supports four commonly used area measurement units. Choose the one that best fits your needs.
Square Meter (m²)
m²
The SI unit of area measurement, widely used worldwide
Common Usage
International standard for area measurement, used in construction, real estate, and scientific applications
Real-world Example
A standard parking space is approximately 12.5 m²
Pyeong (평)
평
Traditional Korean unit of area measurement, still widely used in real estate
Common Usage
Primarily used in Korea for measuring apartments, houses, and land
Real-world Example
A typical Korean apartment is 20-40 pyeong (66-132 m²)
Acre
ac
Traditional unit commonly used in the US, UK, and Commonwealth countries
Common Usage
Used for measuring agricultural land, parks, and large plots
Real-world Example
A football field is approximately 1.3 acres
Hectare (ha)
ha
Metric unit equal to 10,000 square meters, used for large areas
Common Usage
International standard for measuring farmland, forests, and large properties
Real-world Example
A standard city block is approximately 1 hectare

How to Measure Area
content.areaCalculator.measurement.stepsTitle
Find Your Location
Search for the location you want to measure or navigate to it on the map
Tip: Use the search bar for quick access to specific addresses
Zoom to Appropriate Level
Zoom in close enough to see the boundaries of the area you want to measure
Tip: Higher zoom levels provide more accurate measurements
Click to Draw Polygon
Click on the map to place points and create a polygon around the area
Tip: Place points at corners and boundary changes for accuracy
Complete the Shape
Continue clicking to add points. The area will be calculated automatically
Tip: Click on the first point or double-click to close the polygon
Select Unit and Copy
Choose your preferred unit and copy the measurement result
Tip: Use the undo button to adjust points or clear all to start over
Accuracy Tips
Use High Zoom Levels
Zoom in as close as possible for the most accurate boundary detection
Add Sufficient Points
Use more vertices for irregular shapes to capture all details
Follow Exact Boundaries
Place points precisely on property lines and borders
Consider Terrain
Note that measurements are 2D projections and don't account for elevation changes
Best Practices
- ✓Start from a corner and work clockwise or counter-clockwise
- ✓Place points closer together on curved boundaries
- ✓Use satellite view for better visibility of property boundaries
- ✓Double-check your polygon before copying the measurement
- ✓For large areas, consider measuring in sections and adding results
