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.

Returns a GeoJSON-style list of the geometry's coordinates.
| Usage | Returns | MultiPoint.coordinates() | List |
| Argument | Type | Details | this: geometry | Geometry | |
Examples
Code Editor (JavaScript)
// Define a MultiPoint object.
var multiPoint = ee.Geometry.MultiPoint([[-122.082, 37.420], [-122.081, 37.426]]);
// Apply the coordinates method to the MultiPoint object.
var multiPointCoordinates = multiPoint.coordinates();
// Print the result to the console.
print('multiPoint.coordinates(...) =', multiPointCoordinates);
// Display relevant geometries on the map.
Map.setCenter(-122.085, 37.422, 15);
Map.addLayer(multiPoint,
{'color': 'black'},
'Geometry [black]: multiPoint');
Python setup

Python Environment page for information on the Python API and using
geemap for interactive development.

[null,null,["Last updated 2023-10-06 UTC."],[],["The `coordinates()` method, applicable to `MultiPoint` geometry, extracts and returns a list of the geometry's coordinates in GeoJSON format. The method takes the geometry as its argument. Examples demonstrate its use in both JavaScript and Python, defining a `MultiPoint` object, applying `coordinates()`, and printing the resulting coordinate list. Additionally, the examples visualize the `MultiPoint` geometry on a map, using black color, for contextual understanding.\n"]]
