Area Calculator

Measure the area and perimeter of a polygon.

How to use
  1. Paste a Polygon or MultiPolygon (coordinate list, WKT, or GeoJSON).
  2. Pick a unit — m², km², hectares, acres, or 평 (pyeong).
  3. Use the Batch (GeoJSON) tab to measure every polygon in an uploaded FeatureCollection at once.
  • Area and perimeter are geodesic (great-circle), not a flat-plane approximation.

Area and Perimeter Measurement Coverage

Measures the geodesic area and perimeter of a Polygon or MultiPolygon using turf's spherical-excess calculation — not a flat-plane approximation that treats degrees as meters. Units include m², km², hectares, acres, and 평 (exactly 400/121 m²).

The Batch (GeoJSON) tab measures every polygon in an uploaded FeatureCollection at once.

How to use it

  1. Enter or draw the Polygon or MultiPolygon to measure.
  2. Choose the output unit — m², km², hectares, acres, or 평.
  3. To measure many polygons at once, upload a GeoJSON in the Batch tab.

Frequently asked questions

Can't I just treat degrees as meters?

No — a degree of longitude covers less real distance farther from the equator, so treating degrees as meters produces systematically wrong area outside the tropics.

Is 평 (pyeong) exactly 3.3 m²?

No — it's exactly 400/121 m² (≈3.3058 m²), and this tool uses that exact factor rather than the commonly rounded 3.3.
