Re: [udig-users] Make multipolygon borders less detailed?

Hi Jan,

I may be wrong but I guess udig does not have a "generalize" or "simplify" spatial operation right now.

If you're using geoserver though, it may be worth giving a try to the "feature pregeneralized" datastore, which decorates any other kind of data store allowing the creation of a pyramid like geometry structure (using different geometry fields at different simplification levels):
<http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTDOC/Feature-Pregeneralized>
<http://docs.geoserver.org/1.7.5/user/tutorials/feature-pregeneralized/feature-pregeneralized_tutorial.html>

cheers,
Gabriel

Hi list,

I have a multipolygon shapefile that is so detailed/big that when I try to load it into my web based GIS application my web browser crashes (even Chrome does).

Thus, I wonder if there is a function in uDig that makes polygon borders less detailed - without losing their shape totally of course?

Jan
