[postgis-users] Get point certain degree of another point

[Marc Jansen]

Hi tommy408,

I would construct a horizontal line with your starting point and the 
distance you need and afterwards rotate that line using ST_Rotate
http://postgis.refractions.net/documentation/manual-svn/ST_Rotate.html

The new endpoint should be what  you are searching.

Regards,
Marc
