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. Learn more.

Applies the Hough transform to an image. For every input band, outputs a band where lines are detected by thresholding the Hough transform with a value of lineThreshold. The output band is named [input]_lines, where [input] is the name of the original band. The defaults provided for the parameters are intended as a starting point for use with UINT8 images.

It takes an image as input and outputs a new image with detected lines for each band, named `[input]_lines`. Key actions include thresholding the input image based on `inputThreshold` to identify active pixels and then thresholding the Hough transform output with `lineThreshold` to detect lines. `gridSize` controls the computation grid, and `smooth` enables smoothing before line detection. Defaults are provided for UINT8 images.\n"]]
