Page Summary
-
The
bounds()method returns the bounding rectangle of a geometry. -
It can be applied to a
LineStringobject. -
Optional arguments include
maxErrorfor reprojection tolerance andprojto specify the output projection.

Geometry | Return the bounding box of this geometry. |
maxError

ErrorMargin, default: null | The maximum amount of error tolerated when performing any necessary reprojection. |
proj
