Tool

Redundant vertices are vertices that do not contribute to the geometry of a feature. Removing them can reduce drawing time, minimize data storage, and improve printing while retaining the important data points.

This command uses the Douglas-Peucker Algorithm with a tolerance of zero.

Vertices can be removed from areas or lines.
