AI-generated Key Takeaways
-
The
Dictionary.evaluatemethod asynchronously retrieves the value of a dictionary object from the server and passes it to a callback function. -
The callback function is executed when the server returns an answer, with the success argument containing the evaluated result on success and the failure argument containing an error message on failure.
-
In JavaScript,
dictServer.evaluatecan be used to transfer a server-side dictionary to the client for client-side operations. -
The Earth Engine Python client library does not have an
evaluatemethod for asynchronous evaluation; instead,ee.Dictionary.getInfo()should be used.

Examples
Code Editor (JavaScript)
// A dictionary (e.g. results of ee.Image.reduceRegion of an S2 image). var dictServer = ee . Dictionary ({ B1 : 182 , B2 : 219 , B3 : 443 }); // Use evaluate to transfer server-side dictionary to the client. dictServer . evaluate ( function ( dictClient ) { print ( 'Client-side dot notation to access "B1" value' , dictClient . B1 ); print ( 'Client-side bracket notation to access "B1" value' , dictClient [ 'B1' ]); print ( 'Client-side operations to print all key-value pairs' ); Object . keys ( dictClient ). forEach ( function ( key ) { print ( ' ' + key + ': ' + dictClient [ key ]); }); });
