By Gauss Krüger III do you mean zone 3? That seems to be in spatial_ref_sys. If so, certainly you can re-project your data.

With respect to reducing vertices, you might prefer st_simplifypreservetopology(). I've also had success with st_snaptogrid().

st_simplify() might be a function to reduce the no of vertices. Maybe also st_buffer(yourGeom, 0) could help to get valid polygons in general keeping the geometry.

Now, that I have valid data in my db, the following questions arise:

1) The projection of the data is Gauss Krüger III. Possible to re-project to lets say EPSG 4326? 2) The polygons contain too much vertices. I would like to reduce it, but keep the common borders valid. Does anybody know, how this could be achieved?
