Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for analyzing, processing, and generating maps, such as maps representing license territories for radio frequency spectrum as used in wireless communications, or other spatial data. Maps and other spatial data are maintained as spatial data files and the analysis, processing, and generation of these files may be accomplished through reducing the number of spatial data points in the spatial data file. A candidate point be may selected for elimination if it is found to be within a threshold separation distance of a reference point. Further a candidate point may be selected for eliminated if it is within a collinear variance distance of a reference point and a third point in series. Candidate points which are not selected for elimination are retained and used to generate a new spatial data file representing a new license territory map.
