Simplifying Polygons<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Hello!<BR>Having a a client-side performance problem due to a large
number of polygons being brought down to a Google Map. Sometimes the GZipped
response is around 2MB worth of GeoJSON.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I'm hoping that I can partially solve the problem by simplifying the
polygons using ST_Simplify. The problem I'm running into is that the polygons
are all contiguous and after simplification they are not connecting with each
other. (See attached image) </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Anyone know how I can simplify the polygons and keep them all "fitting
together"?<BR clear=all>
