An 'area' is a specific portion of space, either on a surface or within a boundary. It can refer to a physical expanse on a map, a specific region within a larger context, or a designated part of a space used for a particular purpose. In geography, an area often denotes a well-defined region with certain characteristics. In mathematics, the term area refers to the amount of two-dimensional space taken up by a surface. It is a crucial concept in various fields such as urban planning, environmental studies, and more.
