An offshoot of the Ear-Clipping work is going to be a Concave Hull
algorithm for Polygons.  It runs ear-clipping on the outside of the polygon
until some criteria is reached (either a target reduction in number of
vertices or limit to increase in area).  This essentially "shrink-wraps"
the polygon.

Could isochrones be formed by buffering the roads by a small amount and
then constructing the Polygon Concave Hull?
