ee.Geometry.LineString.bounds

Returns the bounding rectangle of the geometry.

Usage	Returns
LineString.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

Code Editor (JavaScript)

// Define a LineString object.
var lineString = ee.Geometry.LineString([[-122.09, 37.42], [-122.08, 37.43]]);

// Apply the bounds method to the LineString object.
var lineStringBounds = lineString.bounds();

// Print the result to the console.
print('lineString.bounds(...) =', lineStringBounds);

// Display relevant geometries on the map.
Map.setCenter(-122.085, 37.422, 15);
Map.addLayer(lineString,
             {'color': 'black'},
             'Geometry [black]: lineString');
Map.addLayer(lineStringBounds,
             {'color': 'red'},
             'Result [red]: lineString.bounds');
