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.ImageCollection.reduce
Stay organized with collections
Save and categorize content based on your preferences.
Applies a reducer across all of the images in a collection.
If the reducer has a single input, it will be applied separately to each band of the collection; otherwise it must have the same number of inputs as the collection has bands.
The reducer output names determine the names of the output bands: reducers with multiple inputs will use the output names directly, while reducers with a single input will prefix the output name with the input band name (e.g., '10_mean', '20_mean').
Usage
Returns

parallelScale
Float, default: 1
A scaling factor used to limit memory use; using a larger parallelScale (e.g., 2 or 4) may enable computations that run out of memory with the default.
