Definition
The classifier 平方米 (píng fāng mǐ) denotes a square meter, a unit of area. Unlike 平方 (píng fāng), which refers to the mathematical square (e.g. square root) or acts as a prefix to form area units, 平方米 is a specific measurement unit. 立方米 (lì fāng mǐ) measures volume (cubic meter), not area, so they apply to different dimensions.
