Announcement: All noncommercial projects registered to use Earth Engine before
April 15, 2025 must
verify noncommercial eligibility to maintain Earth Engine access.
ee.Algorithms.GeometryConstructors.LineString
Stay organized with collections
Save and categorize content based on your preferences.
Constructs a LineString from the given coordinates.
| Usage | Returns | ee.Algorithms.GeometryConstructors.LineString(coordinates, crs, geodesic, maxError) | Geometry |
| Argument | Type | Details | coordinates | List | The list of Points or pairs of Numbers in x,y order. |
crs | Projection, default: null | The coordinate reference system of the coordinates. The default is the projection of the inputs, where Numbers are assumed to be EPSG:4326. |
geodesic | Boolean, default: null | If false, edges are straight in the projection. If true, edges are curved to follow the shortest path on the surface of the Earth. The default is the geodesic state of the inputs, or true if the inputs are numbers. |
maxError | ErrorMargin, default: null | Max error when input geometry must be reprojected to an explicitly requested result projection or geodesic state. |
