ee.Geometry.LinearRing.projection

  • Returns the projection of a given geometry, specifically a LinearRing.

  • The projection() method is used to obtain the projection information.

  • Examples are provided in JavaScript and Python demonstrating how to use the projection() method.

  • Usage involves defining a LinearRing geometry and applying the projection() method to it.

 Returns the projection of the geometry.

Code Editor (JavaScript)

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

// Apply the projection method to the LinearRing object.
var linearRingProjection = linearRing.projection();

// Print the result to the console.
print('linearRing.projection(...) =', linearRingProjection);

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