Returns the union of the two geometries.
| Usage | Returns | LinearRing.union(right, maxError, proj) | Geometry |
| Argument | Type | Details | this: left | Geometry | The geometry used as the left operand of the operation. |
right | Geometry | The geometry used as the right operand of the operation. |
maxError | ErrorMargin, default: null | The maximum amount of error tolerated when performing any necessary reprojection. |
proj | Projection, default: null | The projection in which to perform the operation. If not specified, the operation will be performed in a spherical coordinate system, and linear distances will be in meters on the sphere. |
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]]);
// Define other inputs.
var inputGeom = ee.Geometry.BBox(-122.085, 37.415, -122.075, 37.425);
// Apply the union method to the LinearRing object.
var linearRingUnion = linearRing.union({'right': inputGeom, 'maxError': 1});
// Print the result to the console.
print('linearRing.union(...) =', linearRingUnion);
// Display relevant geometries on the map.
