Slope Preserving Terrain Simplification - An Experimental Study

This paper introduces a new measure of quality for terrain surface simplification aiming at preserving the slope of the surface, as well as a new simplification algorithm which satisfies this measure. Experimental results and comparisons with other simplification algorithms show the effectiveness of proposed algorithm according to some quality measures.
