Giraffe is in Metric (meters) by default. When your project is set to Imperial (feet), the engine does some work in the background to evaluate all of the distances and areas to convert them to Imperial. However, in Flow, the engine is often working with raw geometries where it is unclear what the correct Unit of Measure might be.

How to
measure the area of a geometry
You may do this using area
Or, you may simply want to input a number from number or Input Parameter
Add the To square meters node. Connect it to the number from the previous step
The output is the original number converted to feet via a multiplier.
1 square foot = 0.09290304000000697 square meters
