New Post: What is a "projected X (or Y) map coordinate"?

Hello,
I understand what are Longitude and Latitude, what are coordinates in pixels, but what is a "projected X (or Y) map coordinate"?
For example I take a point with Longitude = 37.731 and Latitude 55.709 and axMap.DegreesToProj gives me X = 4200195.70 and Y = 7500702.55.
But what are these numbers? Are they some meters, millimeters or what? )
I did not find an answer in MapWinGis documentation.
Thank you.
