It is possible to approximate a Polyline using differents ways.

Approximate a polyline formed by many small segments using polyline arcs

The TO_ARCS command allows to minimize the number of little and adiacents segments using arcs, see also How to approximate a polyline formed by many small segments using an arc polyline

 
Approximate a polyline converting arcs into small segments

The TO_SEGMENTS command allows to convert the arcs of the polyline to little segments, see also How to approximate a polyline converting arcs into small segments    

 

Approximate a polyline converting arcs and segments to N segments all with the same length 

The TO_N_SEGMENTS command allows to convert the polyline as N segments with the same length, see also How to approximate a polyline converting arcs and segments to N segments all with the same length   

 

Round a polyline converting it to a spline 

The TO_SPLINE command allows to round the polyline converting it to a Spline element, see also How to round a polyline converting it to a Spline
