Hi Christian,

thanks for the hint and appreciation for your work. I am planning to use this module on a PostGIS Datastore - if you have a documentation I'd really like to read it. Right now I am diving into the subtleties of feature generalization. Decimal degrees are a bit tricky as the "real" generalisation distances increase towards the equator. The choice is to either get too much detail when reqesting data at medium or high latitudes or loose detail around the equator. (I'll first try the conservative choice and check the response times).

Cheers,
Matthias

Hi, I am the developer. The distance unit is taken from the coordinate
system. Decimal degrees for wgs84.

What is your backend store, I hope you are not working with shape files.
Here is a postgis tutorial, until now I had not the time to write an
official one. This tutorial can be adapted to other databases as well.

Cheers
Christian


Zitat von Matthias Müller<matthias_muel...@tu-dresden.de>:

Hi,

does anybody have experience with the pregeneralized datastore? I would
really like to try this one a larger dataset which contains complex
polygons in WGS84.
The critical parameter for this module is the "generalisation
distance". - But what is the unit for that distance? Is it in dataset
units (degrees in the case of WGS84 source) or is it in meters?

Thanks,
Matthias
