Name

ST_SimplifyVW — Returns a simplified representation of a geometry, using the Visvalingam-Whyatt algorithm

Synopsis

geometry ST_SimplifyVW(geometry geom, float tolerance);

설명

Returns a simplified representation of a geometry using the Visvalingam-Whyatt algorithm. The simplification tolerance is an area value, in the units of the input SRS. Simplification removes vertices which form "corners" with area less than the tolerance. The result may not be valid even if the input is.

The function can be called with any kind of geometry (including GeometryCollections), but only line and polygon elements are simplified. Endpoints of linear geometry are preserved.

[Note]

The returned geometry may lose its simplicity (see ST_IsSimple), topology may not be preserved, and polygonal results may be invalid (see ST_IsValid). Use ST_SimplifyPreserveTopology to preserve topology and ensure validity. ST_CoverageSimplify also preserves topology and validity.

[Note]

This function does not preserve boundaries shared between polygons. Use ST_CoverageSimplify if this is required.

예시

A LineString is simplified with a minimum-area tolerance of 30.

SELECT ST_AsText(ST_SimplifyVW(geom,30)) simplified
  FROM (SELECT 'LINESTRING(5 2, 3 8, 6 20, 7 25, 10 10)'::geometry AS geom) AS t;

Simplifying a line.

SELECT ST_SimplifyVW(
