[Qgis-user] Distance matrix function in ftool plug-in problem

[McGuire, Rhydwyn]

Hi, I am trying to calculate the difference between a number of points in Qgis, and I am having some trouble understanding what the ftools function has produced, and I want to know what units are in, for example two points which are approximately 12km apart are given the distance 0.11

1)      I couldn't find the Ftools documentation, if someone knows existing documentation could you please point me to it.
2)      Coordinate Reference System I am using is EPSG:4326 WGS84, should I use a different projection to get the distance in km?



Thanks in advance
Rhydwyn
