Earth Engine is introducing
noncommercial quota tiers to safeguard shared compute resources and ensure reliable performance for everyone. All noncommercial projects will need to select a quota tier by
April 27, 2026 or will use the Community Tier by default. Tier quotas will take effect for all projects (regardless of tier selection date) on
April 27, 2026.

ee.Reducer.autoHistogram
Stay organized with collections
Save and categorize content based on your preferences.
Create a reducer that will compute a histogram of the inputs. The output is a Nx2 array of the lower bucket bounds and the counts (or cumulative counts) of each bucket and is suitable for use per-pixel.
| Usage | Returns | ee.Reducer.autoHistogram(maxBuckets, minBucketWidth, maxRaw, cumulative) | Reducer |
| Argument | Type | Details | maxBuckets | Integer, default: null | The maximum number of buckets to use when building a histogram; will be rounded up to a power of 2. |
minBucketWidth | Float, default: null | The minimum histogram bucket width, or null to allow any power of 2. |
maxRaw | Integer, default: null | The number of values to accumulate before building the initial histogram. |
cumulative | Boolean, default: false | |

[null,null,["Last updated 2024-09-19 UTC."],[],["This documentation describes a reducer for computing histograms. The `ee.Reducer.autoHistogram` function generates a reducer that outputs an Nx2 array of lower bucket bounds and their counts. Key parameters include `maxBuckets` (maximum number of buckets, rounded up to a power of 2), `minBucketWidth` (minimum bucket width), `maxRaw` (values to accumulate before histogram build), and `cumulative` (boolean for cumulative counts).\n"]]
