ee.Geometry.LinearRing.disjoint

  • The disjoint() method returns true only if the geometries do not intersect at any point.

  • It can be applied to LinearRing geometries to determine spatial relationships with other geometries.

  • Optional parameters include maxError for reprojection tolerance and proj for specifying the projection.

  • Examples are provided in JavaScript and Python to illustrate the usage and visualization of the method.

 Returns true if and only if the geometries are disjoint.

UsageReturns
LinearRing.disjoint(right, maxError, proj)Boolean
ArgumentTypeDetails
this: leftGeometryThe geometry used as the left operand of the operation.
rightGeometryThe geometry used as the right operand of the operation.
maxErrorErrorMargin, default: nullThe maximum amount of error tolerated when performing any necessary reprojection.
projProjection, default: nullThe 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

Code Editor (JavaScript)

// Define a LinearRing object.
var linearRing = ee.Geometry.LinearRing(
    [[-122.091, 37.420],
     [-122.085, 37.422],
     [-122.080, 37.430]]);

// Define other inputs.
var inputGeom = ee.Geometry.BBox(-122.085, 37.415, -122.075, 37.425);

// Apply the disjoint method to the LinearRing object.
var linearRingDisjoint = linearRing.disjoint({'right': inputGeom, 'maxError': 1});

// Print the result to the console.
print('linearRing.disjoint(...) =', linearRingDisjoint);

// Display relevant geometries on the map.
Map.setCenter(-122.085, 37.422, 15);
Map.addLayer(linearRing,
             {'color': 'black'},
             'Geometry [black]: linearRing');
Map.addLayer(inputGeom,
             {'color': 'blue'},
             'Parameter [blue]: inputGeom');
