It's exactly in the units that are specified in your SRS definition. To go beyond that you can use Distance to make math and conversions to another units.. Note that "length" gives linear distance, not spherical so in long distances you get a distorted length. -- Jani Tiainen --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
