Detailed Description

Simplifies a geometry, ensuring that the result is a valid geometry having the same dimension and number of components as the input.

The simplification uses a maximum distance difference algorithm similar to the one used in the Douglas-Peucker algorithm.

In particular, if the input is an areal geometry ( Polygon or MultiPolygon )

◆ setDistanceTolerance()

void geos::simplify::TopologyPreservingSimplifier::setDistanceTolerance ( double  tolerance)

Sets the distance tolerance for the simplification.

All vertices in the simplified geometry will be within this distance of the original geometry. The tolerance value must be non-negative. A tolerance value of zero is effectively a no-op.

Parameters
tolerancethe approximation tolerance to use
