ee.Dictionary.getGeometry

  • Dictionary.getGeometry() extracts a named geometry value (as an ee.Geometry object) from an input dictionary using a specified key.

  • The method requires a dictionary object and a string key as input.

  • Examples in JavaScript, Python, and Colab demonstrate how to use Dictionary.getGeometry() to retrieve geometry information from dictionaries.

 Extracts a named geometry value from a dictionary.

UsageReturns
Dictionary.getGeometry(key)Geometry

Examples

Code Editor (JavaScript)

// A dictionary (e.g. results of ee.Image.reduceRegion of an S2 image).
var dict = ee.Dictionary({
  B1: 182,
  B2: 219,
  B3: 443,
  Geometry: ee.Geometry.Point([-122.01, 36.97])
});

print('The "Geometry" value as an ee.Geometry object',
      dict.getGeometry('Geometry'));

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

Colab (Python)

# A dictionary (e.g. results of ee.Image.reduceRegion of an S2 image).
dic = ee.Dictionary({
    'B1': 182,
    'B2': 219,
    'B3': 443,
    'Geometry': ee.Geometry.Point([-122.01, 36.97])
})

print('The "Geometry" value as an ee.Geometry object',
      dic.getGeometry('Geometry').getInfo(), sep='\n')
