  • Theaggregate_total_sd method calculates the total standard deviation of a specified property across all objects within a FeatureCollection.

  • It requires the FeatureCollection to aggregate over and the string name of the property to calculate the standard deviation for.

  • The method returns a single Number representing the calculated total standard deviation.

 Aggregates over a given property of the objects in a collection, calculating the total std. deviation of the values of the selected property.
