ee.Geometry.LinearRing.toGeoJSON

  • toGeoJSON() returns a GeoJSON representation of a given Earth Engine Geometry.

  • This method can be applied to LinearRing objects to convert them into GeoJSON format.

  • The returned GeoJSON can be used for further processing or visualization outside the Earth Engine environment.

  • Examples are provided in JavaScript and Python for utilizing this method.

Returns a GeoJSON representation of the geometry.

UsageReturns
LinearRing.toGeoJSON()GeoJSONGeometry
ArgumentTypeDetails

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]]);

// Apply the toGeoJSON method to the LinearRing object.
var linearRingToGeoJSON = linearRing.toGeoJSON();

// Print the result to the console.
print('linearRing.toGeoJSON(...) =', linearRingToGeoJSON);

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