ee.Geometry.Point.toGeoJSONString

  • ThetoGeoJSONString() method returns a GeoJSON string representation of a geometry.

  • The method takes a Geometry instance as input and returns a String.

  • Examples are provided for both JavaScript and Python using Earth Engine to demonstrate the application oftoGeoJSONString() on a Point geometry.

Returns a GeoJSON string representation of the geometry.

UsageReturns
Point.toGeoJSONString()String
ArgumentTypeDetails
this:geometryGeometryThe Geometry instance.

Examples

Code Editor (JavaScript)

// Define a Point object.varpoint=ee.Geometry.Point(-122.082,37.42);// Apply the toGeoJSONString method to the Point object.varpointToGeoJSONString=point.toGeoJSONString();// Print the result to the console.print('point.toGeoJSONString(...) =',pointToGeoJSONString);// Display relevant geometries on the map.Map.setCenter(-122.085,37.422,15);Map.addLayer(point,{'color':'black'},'Geometry [black]: point');
