Hi Is there any plan to simplify geometries in WMS "vector" layers ? I have been looking for a simple way to simplify the geometries in zoomed tiles for a layer. My datastore being PostGIS, simply using the simplification mechanism of this datastore when querying it via WMS would be a simple and efficient solution. I do understand that WFS queries need to return untouched geometries, but why would WMS queries bypass the simplification process ? Actually, I have to do a quite dirty trick, passing a viewparams with the current zoom level to the view and using this to simplify the geometry. The resulting tiles are nice, but take ages to generate because having a parametrized ST_Simplify in the query prevents any use of the index.
Thanks a lot Regards Arnaud
