Dear Marco and Andreas,

thank you for your quick responses.

@Marco: Unfortunately I am not at all familiar with C++ and this project maybe too heavy to learn it :-) I was thinking of a python thing although I would assume that performance would be better in C++ (apart from what you mentioned)

@Anreas: Yes the problem arises when topologically dirty datasets are imported. I already use GRASS to identify gaps and overlaps but v.clean offers only removal based on the area of the sliver polygon thus forcing me to analyze my dataset (area distribution) beforehand whereas I am aiming at a logical distinction of slivers enabling me to distinguish between data to keep and noise to eliminate regardless of the area.

Hi Bernhard,

I can't help you to solve this in QGIS, but I know that Sandro Santilli
(strk) is currently working on Topology support in Postgis (which needs
some funding by the way: http://www.pledgebank.com/postgistopology).

I would assume that the Postgis topology work will help to keep data
clean in the first place, and to clean data when transfering from simple
features to topologic geometries.

One other option that should work today is using GRASS topology and the
v.clean command: http://grass.osgeo.org/gdp/html_grass64/v.clean.html -
however this means transfering geometry to GRASS geometry first.

Dear Devs,

years ago I used ArcINFO a lot. There has been this nice tool
Eliminate to get rid of sliver polygons based on a logical expression
(whereas GRASS only offes v.clean tool=rmarea).
Does anybody know of such a tool for QGIS?
If not I would start coding it myself. In this case I think it might
best fit into fTools. So any ibformation on how to contribute to
fTools would be appreciated.

regards

Bernhard
