Journal Article
Visvalingam, M., & Whelan, J. C. (2016). Implications of Weighting Metrics for Line Generalization with Visvalingam’s Algorithm. The Cartographic journal, 53(3), 253-267. https://doi.org/10.1080/00087041.2016.1149906

Visvalingam's algorithm was designed for caricatural line generalization. A distinction must be made between the algorithm and its operational definition, which includes the metric used to drive it. When the algorithm was first introduced, it was dem... Read More about Implications of Weighting Metrics for Line Generalization with Visvalingam’s Algorithm.
