It is often used in agriculture, forestry, and land planning to quantify large areas of land. The term "HECT" can also refer to HECT (High-Efficiency Computing Technology), which focuses on improving computing performance and energy efficiency. This technology aims to optimize the use of resources in data centers and computing systems, contributing to sustainability and cost-effectiveness in the tech industry.
