Transforms the geometry to a specific projection.
Usage
Returns
BBox.transform(proj, maxError)
Geometry
Argument
Type
Details
this: geometry
Geometry
The geometry to reproject.
proj
Projection, optional
The target projection. Defaults to EPSG:4326. If this has a geographic CRS, the edges of the geometry will be interpreted as geodesics. Otherwise they will be interpreted as straight lines in the projection.

It accepts the geometry to be reprojected, the desired projection (defaulting to EPSG:4326), and an optional maximum projection error. If the target projection is geographic, geometry edges are treated as geodesics; otherwise, they're considered straight lines. The function returns the transformed geometry after the projection operation is complete.\n"]]
