ee.Geometry.BBox.toGeoJSON

  • The toGeoJSON() method returns a GeoJSON representation of a geometry.

  • This method is applied to a Geometry instance and returns a GeoJSONGeometry.

  • Examples are provided in both JavaScript and Python demonstrating the usage and output of toGeoJSON().

Returns a GeoJSON representation of the geometry.

Examples

Code Editor (JavaScript)

// Define a BBox object.
var bBox = ee.Geometry.BBox(-122.09, 37.42, -122.08, 37.43);

// Apply the toGeoJSON method to the BBox object.
var bBoxToGeoJSON = bBox.toGeoJSON();

// Print the result to the console.
print('bBox.toGeoJSON(...) =', bBoxToGeoJSON);

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