I think I'm missing something obvious here. I'm using PHP mapscript and I have two points (epsg:4326). I want to measure the distance between the two points and get the result in meters. I've come at it a couple ways and I'm definitely getting degrees returned. Well, I think I'm just getting the simple difference between the two points. For example, I'm getting the distance between point (0,0) and (0,1) as 1.
I've tried making a shape object (MS_SHAPE_LINE) and using getLength() and I've tried making two point objects and using distanceToPoint. I get the same sort of thing. I guess I'm just looking for how I can define the output unit on a dynamically created shape. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks!
