GeoGetBoundingBox - script and chart function

GeoGetBoundingBox() is used in scripts and chart expressions to calculate the smallest geospatial bounding box that contains all coordinates of a geometry.

A geospatial bounding box, created by the function GeoBoundingBox() is represented as a list of four values: left, right, top, bottom.

Syntax:  

GeoGetBoundingBox(field_name)

Return data type: string

Arguments:  

Argument Description
field_name A field or expression referring to a field containing the geometry to be represented. This could be either a point (or set of points) giving longitude and latitude, or an area.
Tip noteDo not use the Group by clause in the data load editor with this and other non-aggregating geospatial functions, because this will cause an error on load.
