# simplify-2D

  simplify-2D is a high-performance JavaScript 2D polyline simplification library

  If you need a 3D simplification library, check out [microjs/simplify-3D](https://github.com/microjs/simplify-3D).

## Installation

    $ component install microjs/simplify-2D

    

    $ npm install simplify-2d

## API

  ```javascript

  var simplify = require('simplify-2D');

  simplify(points, tolerance, highQuality)

  ```

  Returns a simplified array of points

  - `points` - An array of points in the format: `{x: Number, y: Number}`

  - `tolerance` - Optional number (defaulting to 1) Affects the amount of simplification (in the same metric as the point coordinates).

  - `highQuality` - Optional boolean (defaults to false) - Excludes distance-based preprocessing step which leads to higher quality but runs ~10-20 times slower.
