Distance in Path of Exile is measured in units. This unit is not analogous to feet, nor meters. Most character models are in the range of 15-20 units tall.

Unit Distance / Radius Visualized.[1]

Transparent unit visualizer, for 1920x1080.[1]
A measure of distance is sometimes given in skill descriptions, such as Lua error: Error: invalid field alias "items._pageName"; aliases cannot contain dots or quotes.. which lists the radius of its area of effect in units of distance.
For information about radius of skills and attack range see area of effect and range.
