Break up a polygon into smaller ones

Question

Hi,

I am working with geodjango and I want to breakup a 2D Rectangular Polygon into smaller ones.

My input is a big rectangle and I want to subdivide it in smaller rectangles. The sum of the smaller rectangles must be the original rectangle.

All subrectangles should be equal size.

How can I do that?

Thank you.

Answer 1

1. Pick any point inside the rectangle
2. Draw two lines through it parallel to the edges of the rectangle. Now you've divided your rectangle into four smaller ones.
