ee.Geometry.MultiLineString.perimeter
Returns the length of the perimeter of the polygonal parts of the geometry. The perimeter of multi geometries is the sum of the perimeters of their components.
Usage | Returns |
---|
MultiLineString.perimeter(maxError, proj) | Float |
Argument | Type | Details |
---|
this: geometry | Geometry | The input 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 the units of the coordinate system of this projection. Otherwise it will be in meters. |
Examples
// Define a MultiLineString object.
var multiLineString = ee.Geometry.MultiLineString(
[[[-122.088, 37.418], [-122.086, 37.422], [-122.082, 37.418]],
[[-122.087, 37.416], [-122.083, 37.416], [-122.082, 37.419]]]);
// Apply the perimeter method to the MultiLineString object.
var multiLineStringPerimeter = multiLineString.perimeter({'maxError': 1});
// Print the result to the console.
print('multiLineString.perimeter(...) =', multiLineStringPerimeter);
// Display relevant geometries on the map.
Map.setCenter(-122.085, 37.422, 15);
Map.addLayer(multiLineString,
{'color': 'black'},
'Geometry [black]: multiLineString');
