Description

Given a geometry collection, returns the "simplest" representation of the contents. Singletons will be returned as singletons. Collections that are homogeneous will be returned as the appropriate multi-type.

	When a multipolygon is returned the multipolygon may have shared edges. This results in an invalid multipolygon.
