What should the Z factor be for meters?
If the x,y units and z units are in different units of measure, the z-factor must be set to the appropriate factor, or the results will be incorrect. For example, if your z units are feet and your x,y units are meters, you would use a z-factor of 0.3048 to convert your z units from feet to meters (1 foot = 0.3048 meter).
When to use the Z factor in ESRI?
You can use the same guidelines as above in these cases as well. Note that you should also use the Z-Factor when the X,Y values are in feet and the Z units are in meters, or visa versa. I am Chief Cartographer at Esri, and manage the Cartographic Projects Group on the Content Team.
