## Geobounds aggregations

The `geo_bounds` metric is a multi-value metric aggregation that calculates the [geographic bounding box](https://docs.ogc.org/is/12-063r5/12-063r5.html#30) containing all values of a given `geo_point` or `geo_shape` field. The bounding box is returned as the upper-left and lower-right vertices of the rectangle in terms of latitude and longitude.

The following example returns the `geo_bounds` metrics for the `geoip.location` field:

```json
GET opensearch_dashboards_sample_data_ecommerce/_search
{
  "size": 0,
  "aggs": {
    "geo": {
      "geo_bounds": {
        "field": "geoip.location"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

#### Example response

```json
"aggregations" : {
  "geo" : {
    "bounds" : {
      "top_left" : {
        "lat" : 52.49999997206032,
        "lon" : -118.20000001229346
      },
      "bottom_right" : {
        "lat" : 4.599999985657632,
        "lon" : 55.299999956041574
      }
    }
  }
 }
}
```

## Aggregating geoshapes

To run an aggregation on a geoshape field, first create an index and map the `location` field as a `geo_shape`:

```json
PUT national_parks
{
  "mappings": {
    "properties": {
      "location": {
        "type": "geo_shape"
      }
    }
  }
}
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}

Next, index some documents into the `national_parks` index:

```json
PUT national_parks/_doc/1
{
  "name": "Yellowstone National Park",
  "location":
  {"type": "envelope","coordinates": [ [-111.15, 45.12], [-109.83, 44.12] ]}
}
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}

```json
PUT national_parks/_doc/2
{
  "name": "Yosemite National Park",
  "location": 
  {"type": "envelope","coordinates": [ [-120.23, 38.16], [-119.05, 37.45] ]}
}
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}

```json
PUT national_parks/_doc/3
{
  "name": "Death Valley National Park",
  "location": 
  {"type": "envelope","coordinates": [ [-117.34, 37.01], [-116.38, 36.25] ]}
}
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}

You can run a `geo_bounds` aggregation on the `location` field as follows:

```json
GET national_parks/_search
{
  "aggregations": {
    "grouped": {
      "geo_bounds": {
        "field": "location",
        "wrap_longitude": true
      }
    }
  }
}
```
{% include copy-curl.html %}

The optional `wrap_longitude` parameter specifies whether the bounding box returned by the aggregation can overlap the international date line (180° meridian). If `wrap_longitude` is set to `true`, the bounding box can overlap the international date line and return a `bounds` object in which the lower-left longitude is greater than the upper-right longitude. The default value for `wrap_longitude` is `true`.

The response contains the geo-bounding box that encloses all shapes in the `location` field:

Currently, OpenSearch supports geoshape aggregation through the API but not in OpenSearch Dashboards visualizations. If you'd like to see geoshape aggregation implemented for visualizations, upvote the related [GitHub issue](https://github.com/opensearch-project/dashboards-maps/issues/250).
