ee.Geometry.bounds
Returns the bounding rectangle of the geometry.
Usage | Returns |
---|
Geometry.bounds(maxError, proj) | Geometry |
Argument | Type | Details |
---|
this: geometry | Geometry | Return the bounding box of this geometry. |
maxError | ErrorMargin, default: null | The maximum amount of error tolerated when performing any necessary reprojection. |
proj | Projection, default: null | If specified, the result will be in this projection. Otherwise it will be in EPSG:4326. |
Examples
// Define a Geometry object.
var geometry = ee.Geometry({
'type': 'Polygon',
'coordinates':
[[[-122.081, 37.417],
[-122.086, 37.421],
[-122.084, 37.418],
[-122.089, 37.416]]]
});
// Apply the bounds method to the Geometry object.
var geometryBounds = geometry.bounds();
// Print the result to the console.
print('geometry.bounds(...) =', geometryBounds);
// Display relevant geometries on the map.
Map.setCenter(-122.085, 37.422, 15);
Map.addLayer(geometry,
{'color': 'black'},
'Geometry [black]: geometry');
Map.addLayer(geometryBounds,
{'color': 'red'},
'Result [red]: geometry.bounds');
