{ $isoWeekYear: { date: new Date("Jan 7, 2003") } }

{ $isoWeekYear: ISODate("2017-01-02T00:00:00Z") }

Example

A collection called anniversaries contains the following documents:

{ "_id" : 1, "date" : ISODate("2016-01-01T00:00:00Z") }
{ "_id" : 2, "date" : ISODate("2016-01-04T00:00:00Z") }
{ "_id" : 3, "date" : ISODate("2015-01-01T00:00:00Z") }
{ "_id" : 4, "date" : ISODate("2014-04-21T00:00:00Z") }

The following operation returns the year number in ISO 8601 format for each date field.

db.anniversaries.aggregate( [
  {
    $project: {
      yearNumber: { $isoWeekYear: "$date" }
    }
  }
] )

The operation returns the following results:

{ "_id" : 1, "yearNumber" : 2015 }
{ "_id" : 2, "yearNumber" : 2016 }
{ "_id" : 3, "yearNumber" : 2015 }
{ "_id" : 4, "yearNumber" : 2014 }
