Simplifies a geometry and ensures that the result is a valid geometry having the same dimension and number of components as the input, and with the components having the same topological relationship. ST_SimplifyPreserveTopology

​
Return type

The resulting geometry.

Example

SELECT ST_SimplifyPreserveTopology(ST_GeomFromText('POLYGON((8 25, 28 22, 28 20, 15 11, 33 3, 56 30, 46 33,46 34, 47 44, 35 36, 45 33, 43 19, 29 21, 29 22,35 26, 24 39, 8 25))'), 10)

POLYGON ((8 25, 28 22, 15 11, 33 3, 56 30, 47 44, 35 36, 43 19, 24 39, 8 25))
