Currently available line simplification algorithms are rooted in mathematics
- and geometry, and are unfit for natural features like rivers and
- coastlines. {\WM} algorithm is derived from cartographic knowledge, and
- thus is well suited for natural features. We also documented our
- implementation, which allows anyone understand the algorithm and our
- implementation in detail.
+ and geometry, and are unfit for bendy map features like rivers and
+ coastlines. {\WnM} observed how cartographers simplify these natural
+ features and created an algorithm. We implemented this algorithm and
+ documented it in great detail. Our implementation makes {\WM} algorithm
+ freely available in PostGIS, and this paper explains it.
