REST Resource: projects.filmstripThumbnails

  • FilmstripThumbnail objects represent a series of images from an ImageCollection, arranged in a strip format (horizontal or vertical).

  • They are created using an expression which evaluates to an ImageCollection, and can be rendered in a chosen output encoding.

  • You can customize the layout and projection of the image strip using Orientation and PixelGrid options respectively.

  • Earth Engine provides methods to create these filmstrip thumbnails and retrieve pixel data for visualization.
