Converting from Lumen per Square Foot (lm/ft²) to Lumen per Square Meter (lm/m²) | Illuminance

What is Lumen per Square Foot (lm/ft²)

Lumen per square foot (lm/ft²) is a measurement unit used to quantify the illuminance of a surface in terms of the amount of light (lumens) received per square foot. It is commonly used in the lighting industry to determine the brightness levels of different spaces.

What is Lumen per Square Meter (lm/m²)

Lumen per square meter (lm/m²) is another unit of illuminance that measures the amount of light (lumens) falling on a surface area of one square meter. It is the standard unit of illuminance in the International System of Units (SI) and is widely used in scientific and engineering applications.
