Constructs a bounding box around the geometries in a collection.
Usage | Returns | FeatureCollection.bounds(maxError, proj) | Geometry |
Argument | Type | Details | this: collection | FeatureCollection | The collection whose bounds will be constructed. |
maxError | ErrorMargin, optional | The maximum amount of error tolerated when performing any necessary reprojection. |
proj | Projection, optional | If specified, the result will be in this projection. Otherwise it will be in EPSG:4326. |
Examples
Code Editor (JavaScript)
// FeatureCollection of power plants in Belgium.
var fc = ee.FeatureCollection('WRI/GPPD/power_plants')
.filter('country_lg == "Belgium"');
print('Bounds of Belgium power plants:', fc.bounds()); // ee.Geometry
