Euclidean Distance tool

Hello friends,

I am facing problems in getting the right results after using Euclidean distance tool. the output layer is fine, I want my result in meters, the layer properties, data frame is there in meters, I am suspecting that my projections and coordinates are not matching, I am not sure about the problem.

Please help!

Regards,

Pankaj

You have to confirm that your raster is indeed in a projected coordinate system. You can't confirm this visually, you need to examine the extent values and the cell size. Also if your raster is in web mercator, I wouldn't use if for distance measures of any kind.

The first part is correct I have checked, my raster in processing extent is same, cell size I have to keep at 10 meters and maximum distance is 5000 met. I am using Albers for this, still cant see the correct distance.
