ee.Geometry.serialize
Returns the serialized representation of this object.
Usage | Returns |
---|
Geometry.serialize(legacy) | String |
Argument | Type | Details |
---|
this: geometry | Geometry | The Geometry instance. |
legacy | Boolean, optional | Enables legacy format. |
Examples
// Define a Geometry object.
var geometry = ee.Geometry({
'type': 'Polygon',
'coordinates':
[[[-122.081, 37.417],
[-122.086, 37.421],
[-122.084, 37.418],
[-122.089, 37.416]]]
});
// Apply the serialize method to the Geometry object.
var geometrySerialize = geometry.serialize();
// Print the result to the console.
print('geometry.serialize(...) =', geometrySerialize);
// Display relevant geometries on the map.
Map.setCenter(-122.085, 37.422, 15);
Map.addLayer(geometry,
{'color': 'black'},
'Geometry [black]: geometry');
Python setup
See the
Python Environment page for information on the Python API and using
geemap
for interactive development.

]],
})
# Apply the serialize method to the Geometry object.

# Print the result.

# Display relevant geometries on the map.
