Simplify Vector

Simplifies provided vector layer to specific percent of original vertices.

Field for parameter Perform simplification based on feature field should contains values 0 and 1. Features with value 1 will be generalized and features with value 0 will not be generalized. If the parameter is not set, all elements in layer will be generalized.

Parameters

Label Name Type Description
Input layer Input [vector] Input vector layer to simplify.
Simplify % Simplify [number]
Default: 50
Simplify to this percent of vertices from original layer.
Simplification method Method [enumeration]
Default: 0
Type of simplification method.

Values:
0 - Douglas-Peucker
1 - Visvalingam
Perform simplification based on feature field Field [field]
Default: None
Optional field that specifies which features should be generalized and which should be left intact.
Clean data prior and after simplification CleanData [boolean]
Default: False
Should the data be cleaned using mapshapers -clean before and after performing other steps?
Output Layer Output [vector] Simplified vector layer.

Outputs
