ee.Geometry.Point.toGeoJSON

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

  • It is used on a Geometry instance and returns a GeoJSONGeometry.

Returns a GeoJSON representation of the geometry.

UsageReturns
Point.toGeoJSON()GeoJSONGeometry
ArgumentTypeDetails
this: geometryGeometryThe Geometry instance.

Examples

Code Editor (JavaScript)

// Define a Point object.
var point = ee.Geometry.Point(-122.082, 37.42);

// Apply the toGeoJSON method to the Point object.
var pointToGeoJSON = point.toGeoJSON();

// Print the result to the console.
print('point.toGeoJSON(...) =', pointToGeoJSON);

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