    Square kilometre (U.S. spelling: square kilometer), symbol km², is an SI unit of surface area. It is one of the SI derived units.
    1 km² is equal to:
      1 000 000 m2

    Conversely:

      1 m² = 0.000 001 km²
      1 hectare = 0.01 km²
      1 acre = 0.004 047 km²

    Note: "km²" means square kilometre and not kilo–square metre. For example, 3 km² is equal to 3 000 000 m², not 3000 m².
