What kind of upgrades are you after? ST_LocateAlong does allow for offsetting along a line.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Jul 27, 2012 at 3:16 AM, Tom van Tilburg <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:tom.van.tilburg@gmail.com" target="_blank">tom.van.tilburg@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<div>Thanks for pointing that out David!<br>

I got my example from an existing piece of code that needed
measures later on, so at that time it made sense to create the
measure.<br>
Nevertheless I'm hoping for some upgrade of the linear referencing
functions. Especially the option of offsetting along a line would
be superb.<div class="im"><br>

<div>You've got the right toolbox out, but you're doing a bit of
mismatching between the tools.</div>

<div>You can certainly do this using the Linear Referencing tools
by either using ST_Add_Measure and then using ST_LocateAlong (or
ST_Locate_Along_Measure pre 2.0) OR just use
ST_Line_Interpolate_Point along with ST_Length.</div>
