Constructs an ee.Geometry describing a point from a query submitted to a geodocer using the geopy package. This returns exactly one pair of coordinates.

Tip

Check more info about constructors in the User Guide.

Parameters

• query (str) – Address, query or structured query to geocode.

• geocoder (str, default = 'nominatim') – Geocoder to use. Please visit https://geopy.readthedocs.io/ for more info.
