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.

Returns a Reducer that computes the slope and offset for a (weighted) linear regression of 2 inputs. The inputs are expected to be x data followed by y data. Where applicable, the outputs are named: "scale", "offset".

It determines the slope (\"scale\") and y-intercept (\"offset\") of the linear relationship. This Reducer operates without any input arguments and returns a Reducer object. The core function is computing these two parameters, scale and offset, representing the best-fit line for the provided data.\n"]]
