ee.Geometry.Point.disjoint
Stay organized with collections
Save and categorize content based on your preferences.
Returns true if and only if the geometries are disjoint.
| Usage | Returns | Point.disjoint(right, maxError, proj) | Boolean |
| 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 Point object.
var point = ee.Geometry.Point(-122.082, 37.42);
// Define other inputs.
var inputGeom = ee.Geometry.BBox(-122.085, 37.415, -122.075, 37.425);
// Apply the disjoint method to the Point object.
var pointDisjoint = point.disjoint({'right': inputGeom, 'maxError': 1});
// Print the result to the console.
print('point.disjoint(...) =', pointDisjoint);
// Display relevant geometries on the map.
Map.setCenter(-122.085, 37.422, 15);
Map.addLayer(point,
{'color': 'black'},
'Geometry [black]: point');
Map.addLayer(inputGeom,
{'color': 'blue'},
