hi,<br><br>In the application I am working on, I need to draw a parallel line to a previously selected linestring.<br>The parallel line has to be at a distance "d" in METERS.<br>So far the map where the lines are drawn was in UTM coordinates so I had no problem to do that because there is a direct relation between UTM coordinates and metric units. Just some algebra (sin, cos..) and Pythagoras and I had the parallel line at a distance "d" (METERS).<br>
Now the map is in Geographic coordinates and I am really confused. I do not know how to do the parallel lines any more because I think I can not mix meters with degrees.<br><br>any ideas?<br>thanks for just reading it.<br>
