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.
ee.Geometry.LineString
Stay organized with collections
Save and categorize content based on your preferences.
Constructs an ee.Geometry describing a LineString.
For convenience, varargs may be used when all arguments are numbers. This allows creating geodesic EPSG:4326 LineStrings given an even number of arguments, e.g. ee.Geometry.LineString(aLng, aLat, bLng, bLat, ...).
A list of at least two points. May be a list of coordinates in the GeoJSON 'LineString' format, a list of at least two ee.Geometry objects describing a point, or a list of at least four numbers defining the [x,y] coordinates of at least two points.
proj
Projection, optional
The projection of this geometry. If unspecified, the default is the projection of the input ee.Geometry, or EPSG:4326 if there are no ee.Geometry inputs.
geodesic
Boolean, optional
If false, edges are straight in the projection. If true, edges are curved to follow the shortest path on the surface of the Earth. The default is the geodesic state of the inputs, or true if the inputs are numbers.
maxError
ErrorMargin, optional
Max error when input geometry must be reprojected to an explicitly requested result projection or geodesic state.
