Examples
Code Editor (JavaScript)
print ( 1 ); // 1 print ( ee . Number ( 1 )); // 1 print ( ee . Array ([ 1 ])); // [1] print ( ee . ImageCollection ( 'AAFC/ACI' ). size ()); // 10 print ( ee . Image ( 'AAFC/ACI/2009' )); // Image AAFC/ACI/2009 (1 band) print ( ee . FeatureCollection ( "NOAA/NHC/HURDAT2/pacific" ). size ()); // 28547

"""There is no dedicated print function for the Earth Engine Python API. To print Earth Engine objects, use Python's built-in `print` function. Printing an Earth Engine object in Python prints the serialized request for the object, not the object itself, so you must call `getInfo()` on Earth Engine objects to get the desired object from the server to the client. For example, `print(ee.Number(1).getInfo())`. Note that `getInfo()` is a synchronous operation. Alternatively, the eerepr library provides rich Earth Engine object representation; it is included in the geemap library. """ print ( 1 ) # 1 print ( ee . Number ( 1 ) . getInfo ()) # 1 print ( ee . Array ([ 1 ]) . getInfo ()) # [1] print ( ee . ImageCollection ( 'AAFC/ACI' ) . size () . getInfo ()) # 10 print ( ee . Image ( 'AAFC/ACI/2009' ) . getInfo ()) # Image AAFC/ACI/2009 (1 band) print ( ee . FeatureCollection ( "NOAA/NHC/HURDAT2/pacific" ) . size () . getInfo () ) # 28547
