I currently use the IProximityOperator.ReturnDistance() method to get the distance between two projected polygons. As far as I can tell the distance retrieved is planar, not geodesic. Is that true? Is the coordinate system of the input polygons factored into the calculation? The documentation doesn't specify.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 17 Apr 2013 21:17:31 GMT RichWawrzonek 2013-04-17T21:17:31Z Geodesic distance in ArcObjects for desktop? https://community.esri.com/t5/arcobjects-sdk-questions/geodesic-distance-in-arcobjects-for-desktop/m-p/482569#M13068 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I'm writing an ArcObjects solution for ArcGIS desktop 10.
