What is a square hectometer?

A square hectometer is an SI-derived unit of area equal to a square with sides of one hectometer (100 meters), equivalent to 10,000 square meters or one hectare.

What does the plaza unit represent?

Plaza is an informal term for the surface area of a public square or open urban space, with a size that varies depending on the context.

Why convert from square hectometers to plazas?

Converting to plazas helps estimate or communicate sizes of open urban spaces using a familiar spatial concept in urban planning and event management.
