### Point simplification
* -r _rate_: Rate at which dots are dropped at zoom levels below basezoom (default 2.5)
* -r _rate_: Rate at which dots are dropped at zoom levels below basezoom (default 2.5).
If you use -rg, it will guess a drop rate that will keep at most 50,000 features in the densest tile.
* -g _gamma_: Rate at which especially dense dots are dropped (default 0, for no effect). A gamma of 2 reduces the number of dots less than a pixel apart to the square root of their original number.
