+<em>v.generalize</em> is a module for the generalization of GRASS
|
|
|
+vector maps. This module consists of algorithms for line
|
|
|
+simplification, line smoothing, network generalization and displacement

+(new methods may be added later).

|
+<p>
|
|
|
+The <b>cats</b> and <b>where</b> options are used only if a <b>layer</b>
|
|
|
+> 0 is specified, otherwise, those options are ignored. Be aware
|
|
|
+that the default is <em>layer=-1</em>, meaning that all layers are
|
|
|
+processed, ignoring the <b>cats</b> and <b>where</b> options.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
<p>If <b>type=area</b> is selected, boundaries of selected areas will be
|
|
|
generalized, and the options <b>cats</b>, <b>where</b>, and
|
|
|
<b>layer</b> will be used to select areas.
