Hello,

I don't understand very well what you're trying to achieve in your ordering 
statement : you are trying to order point regarding line and cells' centroids 
but there is no explicit join between line/cell and point 3D. This could work 
in your final with when you build the 3D points from the previous tables.

Hugues.

Objet : [postgis-users] ST_MakeLine() woes

Hi, I have the following code (based on the blog:
http://blog.mathieu-leplatre.info/drape-lines-on-a-dem-with-postgis.html):

WITH line AS
-- From an arbitrary line
(SELECT geom from foot_cl where (sheet='AT24' AND sid=463)), cells AS
-- Get DEM elevation for each intersected cell (SELECT 
ST_Centroid((ST_Intersection(at24.rast, line.geom)).geom) AS geom, 
(ST_Intersection(at24.rast, line.geom)).val AS val FROM at24, line WHERE 
ST_Intersects(at24.rast, line.geom)),
-- Instantiate 3D points, ordered on line points3d AS (SELECT 
ST_SetSRID(ST_MakePoint(ST_X(cells.geom), ST_Y(cells.geom), val),
2193) AS geom
FROM cells, line)
select * from points3d

which produces a series of points with the correct shape of the line.
If however I replace the last  line with:

SELECT ST_MakeLine(points3d.geom ORDER BY ST_Distance(ST_StartPoint(line.geom), 
cells.geom)) FROM points3d,line,cells

I end up with a line shape which bears only a faint resemblance to what it 
should be, i.e. the points are not in the correct sequence.
What is wrong with what I am doing and how can I get the points in the correct 
sequence?
Many thanks
