[postgis-users] Forming a BAND around a linestring

[Ed Linde]

Hi All,
I have a set of points with (x,y) co-ordinates that belong to a single
object ex: a segment in a road network.
If we made a LINESTRING that connected these points (x,y), then I would
like to have a BAND or RANGE
around the linestring of say 10 meters wide that would probably make it
look more like a polygon or some
area. How can I achieve this in postgis 2.0? Do I need to use some library
like GDAL in order to achieve this?

Cheers,
Ed
