Ian,

Depending on your database technology, you may be able to map those  
points by passing the point and radius to the database and using a  
spatial function to convert the coordinates.

For MySQL, you can see:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/spatial-extensions.html

Postgres , SQL Server 2000/5, and  Oracle have their own set of  
spatial extensions as well.
