I'm trying to filter an image collection by checking whether the footprint of the contained features only consists of 5 vertices. The following code snipped gives me 14 elements, although there should only be one (feature number 8 is the correct one):
var start_date = '2016-08-20';
var end_date = '2016-08-22';
var sentinel3 = ee.ImageCollection('COPERNICUS/S3/OLCI')
.filterDate(start_date, end_date)
.filterBounds(ee.Geometry.Point(90.4, 21.76))
.filterMetadata('timeliness', 'equals', 'NT')
.filterMetadata('groundTrackDirection', 'equals', 'descending')
The difference between a "real" result and an artifact is that artifacts have the following property: system:footprint: LinearRing, 5 vertices
, where then the vertices are simply to bounds of the whole earth. For a real result, this property looks like this: system:footprint: LinearRing, 19 vertices
. I don't know if there are always 19 vertices, but I'm definitely sure that every time there are only 5, I want to filter out this result.
Here are a number of additional filters I already tried:
.filterMetadata('system:footprint:coordinates:0', 'not_equals', [-180,-90])
.filterMetadata('system:footprint:coordinates:0:0', 'greater:than', -180)
.filterMetadata('coordinates:0', 'not_equals', [-180,-90])
