Split Complex Polygons

Splits polygons with too many vertices into smaller parts. Each part is a separate feature that keeps all the attributes of the split polygon.

Inputs:

• Source file - Vector layer in one of the formats supported by GDAL, e.g. GeoJSON, GeoPackage, zipped Shapefile.

• Max count of vertices - Maximum number of vertices allowed in a polygon. Default is 200000.

Outputs:

• GeoPackage file with split polygons.
