AI-generated Key Takeaways
-
The
containedInmethod returns true if one geometry is contained within another. -
The method can be applied to a
Pointgeometry using the syntaxPoint.containedIn(right, maxError, proj). -
The
rightargument is the geometry being checked for containment, whilemaxErrorandprojare optional parameters for error tolerance and projection.
| Usage | Returns |
|---|---|
Point.
containedIn
(right, maxError
, proj
)
|
Boolean |
| Argument | Type | Details |
|---|---|---|
|
this:
left
|
Geometry | The geometry used as the left operand of the operation. |
right
|
Geometry | The geometry used as the right operand of the operation. |
maxError
|
ErrorMargin, default: null | The maximum amount of error tolerated when performing any necessary reprojection. |
proj
|
Projection, default: null | The projection in which to perform the operation. If not specified, the operation will be performed in a spherical coordinate system, and linear distances will be in meters on the sphere. |

// Define a Point object. var point = ee . Geometry . Point ( - 122.082 , 37.42 ); // Define other inputs. var inputGeom = ee . Geometry . BBox ( - 122.085 , 37.415 , - 122.075 , 37.425 ); // Apply the containedIn method to the Point object. var pointContainedIn = point . containedIn ({ 'right' : inputGeom , 'maxError' : 1 }); // Print the result to the console. print ( 'point.containedIn(...) =' , pointContainedIn ); // Display relevant geometries on the map.
