Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
s2cell	`string`	✔️	S2 cell token value as it was calculated by geo_point_to_s2cell(). The S2 cell token maximum string length is 16 characters.

Returns

The geospatial coordinate values in GeoJSON Format and of a dynamic data type. If the S2 cell token is invalid, the query will produce a null result.

Examples

The following example calculates the geospatial coordinates that represent the center of an S2 cell.

Run the query

print point = geo_s2cell_to_central_point("1234567")
| extend coordinates = point.coordinates
| extend longitude = coordinates[0], latitude = coordinates[1]

Output

point	coordinates	longitude	latitude
{ "type": "Point", "coordinates": [ 9.86830731850408, 27.468392925827604 ] }	[ 9.86830731850408, 27.468392925827604 ]	9.86830731850408	27.4683929258276
