Bob,
In order to have only one row, I have a number of points stored in a table as
st_union.
I assume you mean stored in a table as a MULTIPOINT geometry?
Is there a method of breaking the points out of the st_union geometry so that
I can access the points individually.
I want to use the points as a reference for st_within. It doesn't seem to works
as it seems to regard the st_union point geometry as a whole.
Here is an example of what I think you want using 10 points dynamically
generated, unioned and then Dumped.
select (ST_Dump(MPoint)).geom as Point
from (select ST_Union(ST_Point(g.*,g.*)) as MPoint
from generate_series(1,10,1) g
) as m;
Or
select ST_GeometryN(f.MPoint,f.pcount) as Point
from (select m.MPoint, generate_series(1,ST_NumGeometries(m.mpoint),1) as
pcount
from (select ST_Union(ST_Point(p.*,p.*)) as MPoint from
generate_series(1,10,1) as p ) m
) as f;
regards
Simon
