Hi,
OpenJUMP does not know anything about projections and units. These data are in
EPSG:4326 (WGS84 lon/lat) and units are degrees. Thus Tasmania is close to 10
degrees wide, which is correct.

Aihe: [JPP-Devel] Problem regarding measuring tools
Hi,
I have downloaded some sample layer datasets which are being provided
by geoserver named tasmania_roads &
tasmania_state_boundaries in the form of shapefiles, then I added these layers
in OpenJump. Everything is fine except the distance information.
The distance tool is showing that the width of the Tasmania state is less than
10m. I didn't get what the problem is??
For reference, I am attaching the zipped folder of both the shapefiles.
Thanks
Siddharth
