Currently available line simplification algorithms are rooted in

mathematics 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.
