Transforms the geometry to a specific projection.
Usage
Returns
Point.transform(proj, maxError)
Geometry
Argument
Type
Details
this: geometry
Geometry
The geometry to reproject.
proj
Projection, optional
The target projection. Defaults to EPSG:4326. If this has a geographic CRS, the edges of the geometry will be interpreted as geodesics. Otherwise they will be interpreted as straight lines in the projection.

It accepts the target projection (`proj`) and an optional maximum error (`maxError`). The method operates on a `Geometry` object and returns a new `Geometry` with the transformed coordinates. If `proj` is geographic, edges are geodesics; otherwise, they are straight lines in the projection. The default projection is EPSG:4326.\n"]]
