[postgis-users] Reclassify a Slope Surface

Hi all,

I am trying to reclassify a slope surface with a reverse normalisation
(lower the slope value, the closer to 1 it becomes).

It can be done in ArcGIS in the Raster Calculator using:
(0.404234915971756 - "slope") / 0.404234915971756 
where 0.404234915971756 is the maximum value (minimum value of the data is
zero so I don't need to include this in the calculation).

Wanting to recreate this process in PostGIS so can anyone advise on how I
could do the calculation for:
(max. value - cell value)/ max. value for each cell in the raster?
Cannot get my head around it.

Much Appreciated
James
