I also tried that and it works but it does not give me those two columns in my new table. There are only id and status inside.

From the quer below change
SELECT id, status, (ST_Dump(mylines)).geom
to

SELECT id, status, (ST_Dump(mylines)).geom, time_start, time_end

Something to keep an eye out for... Depending upon your version of PostGIS and the underlying libraries, because we were working with an older version of the underlying libraries, I don't know if this is still a potential issue. We ran into issues with "stacked" points (2 GPS points with the same coordinates), and GPS drift causing issues with the linestrings being pretty goofy (jagged points in the linestring that were clearly NOT what the vehicle did). We wrote cleanup scripts to take care of those issues (that are still in place). I've not taken time to revisit the library routines to see if they now handle those conditions cleanly.

    Thank you and all the others who were answering :)

    I tried that and it seems that its working. Nevertheless I only
    tried it with a small part of my data (round about 1 million rows
    out of ~500 million) but if it's working now, it should also work
    with the whole dataset.

    Is there a way to also include the time_field into the result? I
    created a new table with this statement given but there are only
    two columns (vehicleid and status) included.
    I know thats logical because I only included those two into my
    select clause but it would be great to not only order by time but
    also have a time column in my table.

    For example:

    vehicleid | status | time_start | time_end


    I hope its understandable and not to mixed up...

    Thanks!

        Hey, a small correction :
        ST_MakeLine is already an aggregate, and you may want to
        enforce the order inside the aggregate (see at the end).
        Another interesting point is the possiblity to pu somehting in
        the M value of each point of the line, for instance the time.
        This comes very handy when you want to extrat parts of the lines.


        So for instance for the first proposition :

        WITH multis AS (
                        SELECT id, status,*ST_MakeLine( point_**geom
        ORDER BY time_field) *AS mylines
                        FROM your_table
        GROUP BY id, status
        )
        SELECT id, status, (ST_Dump(mylines)).geom
        FROM multis

        Cheers,

            or automatically get the start & end times for each
            trackline in the record like this:

            WITH multis AS (
            SELECT id, min(time_field) AS time_start, max(time_field)
            as time_end, status, ST_MakeLine(array_agg(point_ geom ))
            AS mylines
            FROM your_table
            GROUP BY id, status
            ORDER BY time_field
            )
            SELECT id, status, (ST_Dump(mylines)).geom
            FROM multis;

            Hello,
            In your case I would have try to make multilines for each
            taxi and each status (i.e. two multi by taxi) and then
            dump them into simple linestrings. All in a query that may
            look like this assuming you have a taxi id field:
            WITH multis AS (
            SELECT id, status, ST_MakeLine(array_agg(point_ geom )) AS
            mylines
            FROM your_table
            GROUP BY id, status
            ORDER BY time_field
            )
            SELECT id, status, (ST_Dump(mylines)).geom
            FROM multis
            You may want to add a time reference to your lines. To do
            this, you can add an extraction from your timestamp field
            (e.g. day or month) and add it into the WITH and to the
            group by clause.
            Hugues.

            Hi,
            I have millions of points in a PostGIS database containing
            taxi gps tracks. Now I want to create lines from these
            points by vehicleid and ordered by timestamp. But, and
            that's my problem right now, at first I want to include
            every column of my point table into the "line table" and I
            also need to intersect those lines at specific points.
            I have one column representing the "taxi_is_occupied"
            status with 0 or 1.
            What I want now is to create lines which are divided every
            time this status changes. In the end I need lines which
            show the path of every taxi over time, divided every time
            the status of the car changes so that I can query all
            lines where the taxi is occupied, for example.
            What do I have to use therefore? I know that there is the
            ST_MakeLines tool existing in PostGIS, but as I am a new
            PostGIS user... I do not know exactly how to use it to get
            the results I need.
            Thanks a lot
