I have a points with coordinates EPSG Projection 3059 - LKS92 / Latvia TM. I need to compute the distance in meters between two points.
It is easy to compute euclidean distance between two points, but I am not sure if the resulting distance is expressed in meters?
PROJCS["LKS92 / Latvia TM",
UNIT["metre",1,
PARAMETER["scale_factor",0.9996],
The unit is 1 meter, but should the scale factor taken into account? Maybe 1 unit in this system is not 1m but 0.9996 meters?
