Hello,

This is an ordinary problem and there are tow solution to solve it :
- a plpg function wrote by nicolas ribot : 
http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/wiki/UsersWikiSimplifyPreserveTopology
- a function wrote by sandro santilli using the new topology functions of 
postgis 2 : 
http://strk.keybit.net/blog/2012/04/13/simplifying-a-map-layer-using-postgis-topology/
And also a related approach by Nicolas ribot : 
http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/wiki/UsersWikiSimplifyWithTopologyExt

With all this stuff, you should manage to do what you want

Hugues.

Objet : [postgis-users] Simplifying Polygons

Hello!
Having a a client-side performance problem due to a large number of polygons 
being brought down to a Google Map. Sometimes the GZipped response is around 
2MB worth of GeoJSON.

I'm hoping that I can partially solve the problem by simplifying the polygons 
using ST_Simplify. The problem I'm running into is that the polygons are all 
contiguous and after simplification they are not connecting with each other. 
(See attached image) 

Anyone know how I can simplify the polygons and keep them all "fitting 
together"?
