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. Learn more.

Constructs a rectangle whose edges are lines of latitude and longitude.
The result is a planar WGS84 rectangle.
If (east - west) ≥ 360 then the longitude range will be normalized to -180 to +180; otherwise they will be treated as designating points on a circle (e.g., east may be numerically less than west).

The function `BBox` takes four float arguments: `west`, `south`, `east`, and `north`, representing the rectangle's boundaries. Longitude values are normalized to -180 to +180 if the difference between `east` and `west` is 360 or more; otherwise they define points on a circle. Latitude values are clamped between -90 and +90. The function returns a Geometry object.\n"]]
