ee.Reducer.medianStay organized with collectionsSave and categorize content based on your preferences.
Create a reducer that will compute the median of the inputs. For small numbers of inputs (up to maxRaw) the median will be computed directly; for larger numbers of inputs the median will be derived from a histogram.

For smaller datasets (up to `maxRaw`), the median is directly computed. Larger datasets utilize a histogram for median derivation. The `ee.Reducer.median` function creates this reducer, accepting `maxBuckets` (maximum histogram buckets), `minBucketWidth` (minimum bucket size), and `maxRaw` (raw values threshold) as parameters to customize the histogram creation.\n"]]
