Get lat/long bounding box struct

Supported in: Batch, Streaming

Given a valid geometry or array of geometries, return a struct containing the bounds of the geometry or geometries.

Expression categories: Geospatial

Declared arguments

  • Expression - GeoJSON string or array of GeoJSON strings.
    Expression<Array<Geometry> | Geometry>

Output type: LatLonBoundingBox

Examples

Example 1: Base case

Argument values:

  • Expression: geometry
geometryOutput
{"type":"Polygon","coordinates":[[[0.0,0.0],[1.0,0.0],[0.0,1.0]]]}{
 maxLat -> 1.0,
 maxLon -> 1.0,
 minLat -> 0.0,
 minLon -> 0.0,
}

Example 2: Base case

Argument values:

  • Expression: geometryArray
geometryArrayOutput
[ {"type":"LineString","coordinates":[[1,0],[0,8.4]]}, {"type":"Point","coordinates":[125.6, -92.3]}, {"type":"Polygon","coordinates":[[[0,0],[1,6.3],[-6,1],[0,0]]]} ]{
 maxLat -> 8.4,
 maxLon -> 125.6,
 minLat -> -92.3,
 minLon -> -6.0,
}

Example 3: Null case

Argument values:

  • Expression: geometryArray
geometryArrayOutput
nullnull

Example 4: Edge case

Argument values:

  • Expression: geometryArray
geometryArrayOutput
[ Invalid GeoJSON, {"type":"LineString","coordinates":[[2,0],[0,4.8]]} ]{
 maxLat -> 4.8,
 maxLon -> 2.0,
 minLat -> 0.0,
 minLon -> 0.0,
}
