What are the units in Google Earth Engine?
By default, all units in Earth Engine are in meters. Let’s run some these operations over the state of Connecticut, US using geometries of the public US counties feature collection available on Earth Engine: 1.
What does Union mean in Google Earth Engine?
The union ( union ()) is the area encompassing two or more features. // number is the maximum error in meters. // Add the layer to the map with a specified color and layer name.
Are there any apps for Google Earth Engine?

What kind of geometries does Google Earth Engine support?
The GeoJSON spec describes in detail the type of geometries supported by Earth Engine, including Point (a list of coordinates in some projection), LineString (a list of points), LinearRing (a closed LineString ), and Polygon (a list of LinearRing s where the first is a shell and subsequent rings are holes).
How to create a map in Google Earth Engine?
Let’s run some these operations over the state of Connecticut, US using geometries of the public US counties feature collection available on Earth Engine: 1. We begin by zooming to the region of interest and loading/creating the geometries of interest by extracting them from the corresponding features. // Set map center over the state of CT.
Is there a cookbook for Google Earth Engine?
In this tutorial, we will introduce several types of geospatial data, and enumerate key Earth Engine functions for analyzing and visualizing them. This cookbook was originally created as a workshop during Yale-NUS Data 2.0 hackathon, and later updated for Yale GIS Day 2018 and 2019.
