multipolygons to one polygon, shortest distance

I need to find the shortest outer line of multipolygons in MSSQL (2012/ Azure)

From this: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6491751/geopolygons.png

To: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6491751/geopolygons_filled.png

Like you can see a ConvexHull is way too big. Is this even possible? And if so, how? I was thinking about a convexhull between each polygon with its nearest polygon.

You definitely have to look at alpha shapes.
