हेक्टेयर से वर्ग किलोमीटर रूपांतरण: पर्यावरण और शहरी योजना के लिए क्षेत्र मापन

Exactly 100 hectares equal 1 square kilometer. This is a precise mathematical relationship: 1 km² = 10,000 m × 10,000 m = 100,000,000 m², and since 1 hectare = 10,000 m², dividing gives exactly 100 hectares. This perfect ratio eliminates rounding errors in land area calculations, making it ideal for legal property descriptions and environmental assessments.

Hectares are preferred for detailed site-level management (small protected areas, individual farms, local conservation projects) because they provide finer granularity. Square kilometers are used for regional and national reporting because they handle larger areas more intuitively—saying '250 square kilometers' is simpler than '25,000 hectares.' International environmental databases use square kilometers for consistency, while local implementation uses hectares for practical land stewardship.
