My assumption was that converting a polygon into a point will be an extremme case of simplification / generalization. I mean, I suppose that simplification is useful because as the polygon have less vertex is less computer-intensive. Following that reasoning, computing a point should be less intensive than a polygon with a lot os vertex. Could someone confirm this? If I'm wrong, I'd rather not working on generating the points and saving so a lot of time. > Sometimes simplifying a geometry produces an error, you must use the > next finer level instead. > > But if you like, you can add a point geometry column to your postgis > table and switch in the SLD. > Yep, that's very useful, thanks.
