Hi Maciej

Nice question :)

I think you're right that border length would be a better criterion
than area if you're writing your own algorithm. But you might like to
look at the code for the Decimator class in gt-main

http://svn.osgeo.org/geotools/tags/2.6.1/modules/library/main/src/main/java/org/geotools/geometry/jts/Decimator.java

This is a helper class for rendering that reduces the detail of
geometries. It accepts an AffineTransform argument so you can use that
to specify the map scale. I think you'd need to adapt the code for
your own case but it may be a lot better than starting from scratch.

Hope this helps.

Michael
