geoprocessing - How to aggregate detached polygons?


Is there any open-source library to aggregate detached polygons? I know that there is a tool in ArcInfo, but it is commercial.



Answer



PostGIS has a ST_ConcaveHull function which equates closely to the Aggregate Polygons function of ArcGIS. Sadly Spatialite does NOT have this function.


A concave hull can be thought of as a "shrink-wrapped" convex hull.
