How to convert hectares to square kilometers

Area factors are squared length factors. Acres here use international feet, not historical US survey feet.

Use x for the value in ha, b for the intermediate value in m², and y for the result in km².

km² = ha × 10000 ÷ 1000000

Worked examples

  • 10 ha ≈ 0.1 km²

    Step 1: (10 × 10000) ≈ 100000 m².
    Step 2: 100000 ÷ 1000000 ≈ 0.1 km².

  • 20 ha ≈ 0.2 km²

    Step 1: (20 × 10000) ≈ 200000 m².
    Step 2: 200000 ÷ 1000000 ≈ 0.2 km².

Results are rounded to 12 significant digits. Converting units does not increase the precision of the original measurement. Very large or small values outside JavaScript’s finite numeric range are rejected.

About Hectares
