I'm trying to calculate the distance between points in layer with distance matrix tool. And keep getting strange results no matter what. Like this
MASTER ------------SLAVE ---------------- DISTANCE --------- SHOULD BE
Metrotown ---------Knox Mountain ------ 0.036069979------------ 48.2 km
Metrotown -------- Central --------------- 0.048071058------------- 29.3 km
Metrotown -------- Rosedale ------------ 0.050883421------------- 60.1 km
Metrotown -------- Kelowna -------------- 0.051697257------------ 340.4 km
Metrotown -------- Ocean Park --------- 0.054471001------------- 29.1 km
Metrotown -------- Langley -------------- 0.055017692------------- 18.7km
First my thought was that the distance is in degrees not in meters. So I tried different CMSs but it didn't change anything. Than I tried to duplicate layer and calculate distances between points between two layers. But nothing changed. NAD83 CMS gave me another unrealistic result ( smth like 5665565, 5675656, etc)
What CMS I should use?
I even tried to do this in postgis with ST_Distance and still getting same results.
