Good evening, first of all, I'm using Arcmap and I have several polygons drawn, and I need to ensure that there are no points (vertices) less than 0.5 m away, as the platform where I'm going to load the project gives an error if this happens, is there any way to solve this problem?

 

Thank you in advance for your attention.

If you are referring to point spacing on the perimeter of the polygon

That's exactly what I'm referring to, but what densify will do is leave all points at a defined distance, right?

I'm asking this because i also have a max limit of points that each polygon can have

If you have to simplify the line to ensure that there are not too many points then you have to use

Now, densify will ensure that points are spaced "at least" a certain distance apart, but it does not ensure that no point is closer to another point by a specified distance.  points may be spaced really close together to ensure detail in a line.  It may be a trade-off. simplifying can alter a line's shape whereas densification doesn't
