ee.Geometry.MultiPolygon.containedIn
Returns true if and only if one geometry is contained in the other.
Usage | Returns |
---|
MultiPolygon.containedIn(right, maxError, proj) | Boolean |
Argument | Type | Details |
---|
this: left | Geometry | The geometry used as the left operand of the operation. |
right | Geometry | The geometry used as the right operand of the operation. |
maxError | ErrorMargin, default: null | The maximum amount of error tolerated when performing any necessary reprojection. |
proj | Projection, default: null | The projection in which to perform the operation. If not specified, the operation will be performed in a spherical coordinate system, and linear distances will be in meters on the sphere. |
Examples
// Define a MultiPolygon object.
var multiPolygon = ee.Geometry.MultiPolygon(
[[[[-122.092, 37.424],
[-122.086, 37.418],
[-122.079, 37.425],
[-122.085, 37.423]]],
[[[-122.081, 37.417],
[-122.086, 37.421],
[-122.089, 37.416]]]]);
// Define other inputs.
var inputGeom = ee.Geometry.BBox(-122.085, 37.415, -122.075, 37.425);
// Apply the containedIn method to the MultiPolygon object.
var multiPolygonContainedIn = multiPolygon.containedIn({'right': inputGeom, 'maxError': 1});
// Print the result to the console.
print('multiPolygon.containedIn(...) =', multiPolygonContainedIn);
// Display relevant geometries on the map.
Map.setCenter(-122.085, 37.422, 15);
Map.addLayer(multiPolygon,
{'color': 'black'},
'Geometry [black]: multiPolygon');
Map.addLayer(inputGeom,
{'color': 'blue'},
'Parameter [blue]: inputGeom');

It returns `true` if `left` is contained in `right`, otherwise `false`. It accepts `maxError` to tolerate errors during reprojection and `proj` to specify the projection. When using it, we need to specify two geometry inputs, and can optionally add `maxError` and `proj` information. The operation can be performed in either Javascript or Python code editors.\n"]]
