ee.Geometry.MultiPoint.type
Returns the GeoJSON type of the geometry.
Usage | Returns |

MultiPoint.type() | String |
Argument | Type | Details |

this: geometry | Geometry | |
Examples
// Define a MultiPoint object.
var multiPoint = ee.Geometry.MultiPoint([[-122.082, 37.420], [-122.081, 37.426]]);
// Apply the type method to the MultiPoint object.
var multiPointType = multiPoint.type();
// Print the result to the console.
print('multiPoint.type(...) =', multiPointType);
// Display relevant geometries on the map.
Map.setCenter(-122.085, 37.422, 15);
Map.addLayer(multiPoint,
{'color': 'black'},
'Geometry [black]: multiPoint');
Python setup
See the
Python Environment page for information on the Python API and using
geemap
for interactive development.
import ee
import geemap.core as geemap
# Define a MultiPoint object.
multipoint = ee.Geometry.MultiPoint([[-122.082, 37.420], [-122.081, 37.426]])
# Apply the type method to the MultiPoint object.
multipoint_type = multipoint.type()
# Print the result.
display('multipoint.type(...) =', multipoint_type)
# Display relevant geometries on the map.
m = geemap.Map()
m.set_center(-122.085, 37.422, 15)
m.add_layer(multipoint, {'color': 'black'}, 'Geometry [black]: multipoint')

For instance, applying `type()` to a defined `MultiPoint` object, such as `ee.Geometry.MultiPoint([[-122.082, 37.420], [-122.081, 37.426]])`, outputs \"MultiPoint\". The provided examples demonstrate the usage in JavaScript and Python, including defining a `MultiPoint`, using the `type()` method, printing the type, and displaying the geometry on a map.\n"]]
