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 rectangle whose edges are lines of latitude and longitude.
The result is a planar rectangle in EPSG:4326.
If (east - west) ≥ 360 then the longitude range will be normalized to -180 to
+180; otherwise they will be treated as designating points on a circle (e.g. east may be numerically less than west).
| Usage | Returns | ee.Geometry.BBox(west, south, east, north) | Geometry.BBox |
| Argument | Type | Details | west | Number | The westernmost enclosed longitude. Will be adjusted to lie in the range -180° to 180°. |
south | Number | The southernmost enclosed latitude. If less than -90°
(south pole), will be treated as -90°. |
east | Number | The easternmost enclosed longitude. |
north | Number | The northernmost enclosed latitude. If greater than
+90° (north pole), will be treated as +90°. |

Input arguments include `west`, `south`, `east`, and `north` (longitude and latitude). Longitude values are normalized to -180 to +180 if the range exceeds 360. Longitudes are treated as a circle if not exceeding 360. Latitude values are clamped to -90 and +90 if outside of range.\n"]]
