Google maps has a special serialization form for linestrings/polygons, which would be handy to emit.

As I recall from the last time I investigated this, the "tricky" part is that the Google encoding embeds information about scale into the object as well. So a special douglas/poiker method that marks but does not remove vertices might be required.

Paul,

I was wondering about this encoding a few months ago. I've never seen any references on it, can you point to any?
