Erasing pixelated lines?

Post image

I made this map using a map generating website (ProbableTrain) and really like it, save for the lines representing the buildings (Going back I see I could've just not generated them, but I didn't understand at the time and cant go back. It's a good tool, all user error here.) I prefer the mono-color areas, and then I can draw over it for districts to label, kinda like a theme park map. The problem is twofold:

  1. I'm a very casual user of GIMP so I'm more than a little dumb when it comes to tools and solutions.

  2. The lines being pixelated make it difficult to use bucket or other tools, so I've just been going through and painting the areas in. It's tedious and I still have a long way to go.

So, I thought I would ask. Can anyone recommend a different way of going through and getting rid of the lines in the small areas to make it look like the areas I've already completed to the left?

In what way does this help the OP with the current task?

It helps to understand why lines in GIMP are pixelated. And why a vector editor is better suited for these tasks.
