Square yards would be a surface area measurement (3ft x 3ft), to measure surface area of a flat surface measure the length and width (in yards) then simply the two together .

for example 5yards x 2 yards = 10 square yards=10 yards2

To measure the surface area of a nonuniform surface you would need very specific tools and programs, that are not easily available.

How do you convert square yards to yards?

There is no conversion between square yards and yards, because the units refer to different things. "Square yards" is a unit of area, while "yards" is a unit of length. But there is a relationship. Taking the square root of the units of square yards will give you the measure of the side of a square whose area is equal to that number of square yards. For example, an area of 4 square yards can be represented by a square whose sides each measure 2 yards, 2 being the square root of 4.
