About Land Measurement Units
About Land Measurement Units
Land measurement in India has always been done using various local and native measurement units such as Bigha, Ground, Kanal, etc, depending upon the state. These are locally set benchmarks, which have been in usage for a long time. These unit measurements vary greatly across regions, which is why converting them to international standard units, or globally accepted units, also known as SI units is of paramount importance. In addition, to understand the exact area of land as well as to calculate the value of land, converting local units into SI units, using a land area calculator, is advisable.
Some of the common land measurement units across India are hectares, acres, square meters, square yards. Other than this, Bigha, Marla, Cent, Guntha, Ground are regional units and their size varies from state to state.
