    <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;I am using Python API 1.8, and think I am using the correct syntax.&amp;nbsp; But I am getting the same length for all units.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have a geometry with attributes like this&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;rtegeom = {'hasM': True, 'paths': [[[-17599876.3954, 2460589.6597, 0], [-17599891.4049, 2460615.1396, 0.0170000000071013], [-17599905.0064, 2460642.7833, 0.0347000000037951], [-17599914.0818, 2460664.8565, 0.0485000000044238], [-17599924.0028, 2460693.9899, 0.0662000000011176]]], 'sr': {'wkid': 102100, 'latestWkid': 3857}}&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;and if perform the following rtegeom.get_length(method='PLANAR', units='METERS') I get the same answer using rtegeom.get_length(method='PLANAR', units='MILES').&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Any ideas why this is returning the same value?&amp;nbsp; The measure (third dimension) is in miles.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
