All,

Geometry validity with polygons is really hard. The only solution at Mapbox
we found to fix this properly for Vector Tiles that we create was to modify
an existing algorithm to solve all the potential problems of geometry
validity. The result of this is https://github.com/mapbox/wagyu/ which we
use in our Vector Tile creation scripts now. Unfortunately it doesn't have
great performance when using extremely high numbers of points in polygons.
However, for vector tiles this typically should not be needed if
simplification is done prior to VT creation. If there is supported needed
around this problem I am more then willing to lend my expertise.

Thanks,

Blake Thompson
