| Jan 20, 2017 at 17:30 | comment | added | Hornbydd | I think @user30184 answer is a bit unclear. If you want to create your X and Y fields in metres from a dataset that is in decimal degrees then you need to set the dataframe to a coordinate system that you want, then the units option will offer up metres. At the moment the dataframe is in the same coordinate system as the dataset so how is it supposed to know what you want? | |
| Jan 20, 2017 at 15:55 | comment | added | user30184 | You have both in the data and in the data frame coordinate system EPSG:4148 epsg.io/4148 which is a geographic system and using degrees as units. You can't just go and change units into meters. | |
