ee.Geometry.Rectangle.projection
Returns the projection of the geometry.
Usage | Returns |
---|
Rectangle.projection() | Projection |
Argument | Type | Details |
---|
this: geometry | Geometry | |
Examples
// Define a Rectangle object.
var rectangle = ee.Geometry.Rectangle(-122.09, 37.42, -122.08, 37.43);
// Apply the projection method to the Rectangle object.
var rectangleProjection = rectangle.projection();
// Print the result to the console.
print('rectangle.projection(...) =', rectangleProjection);
// Display relevant geometries on the map.
Map.setCenter(-122.085, 37.422, 15);
Map.addLayer(rectangle,
{'color': 'black'},
'Geometry [black]: rectangle');

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

# Define a Rectangle object.
rectangle = ee.Geometry.Rectangle(-122.09, 37.42, -122.08, 37.43)
# Apply the projection method to the Rectangle object.
rectangle_projection = rectangle.projection()
# Print the result.
display('rectangle.projection(...) =', rectangle_projection)
# Display relevant geometries on the map.
m = geemap.Map()
m.set_center(-122.085, 37.422, 15)

Finally, the code displays the rectangle's location on a map. The method takes one argument: a `geometry` type named `this`.\n"]]
