Dear Listers,

I would like to smooth polygons coming from a raster via r.to.vect using v.generalize methods=snakes.

If I understood the documentation correctly, snakes is the only method that tries to go the middle ground: neither entirely circumscribing (larger than original polygon) nor inscribing (smaller than original polygon) the polygon. I love that behavior. But snakes only works with the available vertices and does not generate new vertices => quite rough outlines.

So i thought it would be a good idea to densify the vertices of the polygon before the generalization. Create new vertices with distance x on the boundary of the polygon. But couldn't find a function in GRASS doing that.

I would love any hints on generalization in general and on how to densify my vertices.


Thanks
  robert
