Splitting complex building shapes into rectangles
Flugwerk

Is it possible to convert complex shapes of ground polygons (buildings) into multiple rectangles (simplify)?
I've attached an image:

Heinrich,
While you can simplify the coordinates for those areas, there isn't going to be much that can be removed from the vertices without a huge amount of simplification that changes the shape. Basically the 'L' shapes at each end near the shape in the middle would become more like long triangles and the box in between the ends could lost a couple of vertices, but you aren't going to simplify and get anything that just covers the middle for example.
Thanks,
