[postgis-users] Buffer Funtion

[Nicolas Ribot]

Hi Marcello,

You can do something like:

create table buff_table as select col1, col2, ..., buffer(the_geom,
10) from original_table;

where the_geom is the name of your geographic column in original_table.

You can also create the destination table first, then update its
geometric column with the buffers of your original points.

Nicolas
