Hi All,

I have a large collection of rather malformed polygons in postgis and
need to clean them somehow. Running isvalid() on the geometry column
gives many "Ring self-intersection" errors, some "Interior is
disconnected" errors and the always enjoyable "Too few points in
geometry component" error. What options are there for
cleaning/correcting polygons?

THK
