Earth Engine is introducing
noncommercial quota tiers to safeguard shared compute resources and ensure reliable performance for everyone. All noncommercial projects will need to select a quota tier by
April 27, 2026 or will use the Community Tier by default. Tier quotas will take effect for all projects (regardless of tier selection date) on
April 27, 2026.

Constructs a MultiPolygon from the given coordinates.
| Usage | Returns | ee.Algorithms.GeometryConstructors.MultiPolygon(coordinates, crs, geodesic, maxError, evenOdd) | Geometry |
| Argument | Type | Details | coordinates | List | A list of Polygons, or for one simple polygon, a 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. |
evenOdd | Boolean, default: true | If true, polygon interiors will be determined by the even/odd rule, where a point is inside if it crosses an odd number of edges to reach a point at infinity. Otherwise polygons use the left-inside rule, where interiors are on the left side of the shell's edges when walking the vertices in the given order. |

[null,null,["Last updated 2024-07-13 UTC."],[],["The `MultiPolygon` constructor creates a geometry from a list of polygon coordinates. Input `coordinates` define either multiple polygons or a single polygon via points or number pairs. Optional parameters include `crs` for coordinate system, `geodesic` to determine edge curvature, `maxError` for reprojection precision, and `evenOdd` for polygon interior determination. This function returns a `Geometry` object, and default values are available for `crs`, `geodesic`, `maxError`, and `evenOdd`.\n"]]
