From Field Guides drupal->datocms migration project.

There is a requirement to record the area of a particular place. There is no dedicated data structure to handle this at the moment. The interim solution is to use the "other numbers" MV grid on the sites tab with type = "Area | units".

Recommendation to add NIST area abbreviations to the List of agreed abbreviations
