Simplify

This node returns for each input geometry a simplified representation. The applied algorithm recursively splits the original lines into smaller parts and connects the endpoints of each part by a straight line. Then, it removes all points whose distance to the straight line is smaller than the provided tolerance distance. It does not move any points and it always preserves endpoints of the original line or polygon.

The node is based on the GeoPandas project and uses the following related information and functions:

• GeoSeries.simplify
• Shapely object.simplify

Input ports

1. Type: Table
   Geo table

   Table with geometries to simplify.

Output ports

1. Type: Table
   Transformed geo table

   Input table with simplified geometries.
