Polygon Smoothing [message #70835]

Folks,

I have a shape file describing a 2D polygon that is *extremely*
complex and detailed. For my puposes, overly so. I would like
to "simplify" or "smooth" this polygon to make it more suitable
for my purpose (using it as a cookie-cutter for extracting data).
Has anyone written a polygon smoothing routine, possibly using
Bï¿œzier curves, in IDL to do such a thing? Would you be willing
to share it?

Thanks,

David
