Package Exports

@turf/simplify

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@turf/simplify) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

turf-simplify

simplify

Takes a LineString or Polygon and returns a simplified version. Internally uses simplify-js to perform simplification.

Parameters

feature (Feature<(LineString | Polygon | MultiLineString | MultiPolygon)> | FeatureCollection | GeometryCollection) feature to be simplified
tolerance number simplification tolerance
highQuality boolean whether or not to spend more time to create a higher-quality simplification with a different algorithm

Examples

var feature = {
  "type": "Feature",
  "properties": {},
  "geometry": {
    "type": "Polygon",
    "coordinates": [[
