Map simplification method and device, electronic equipment and machine readable storage medium

The embodiment of the invention provides a map simplification method and device, electronic equipment and a machine readable storage medium. The method comprises the following steps: obtaining an initial map and reservation parameters, and carrying out the deletion operation of map points in the initial map through a preset simplification strategy according to the reservation parameter and the map point data information of the initial map, so as to obtain a simplified map. The reservation parameters are parameters related to map points needing to be reserved in the initial map, and the map point data information indicates all current map points in the initial map, so that the map points in the initial map are deleted by adopting the preset simplification strategy according to the reservation parameters and the map point data information; and the redundant map points in the map are deleted, so that the map points needing to be recorded in the map are greatly reduced, and simplification of the map is realized.
