An example query using ST_SnapToGrid() would be:
UPDATE mytable
SET the_geom = ST_SnapToGrid(the_geom, 0.001);
This query will "snap" your geometries to a precision grid of 10^-3.
The other variants are the same thing, but allow you to specify an
offset origin other than the default of 0,0.
Ie.
The above query is the same as doing:
UPDATE mytable
SET the_geom = ST_SnapToGrid(the_geom, 0, 0, 0.001, 0.001);
Because this function employs this "offset to origin" concept, care
should be taken if you actually want to use this function to reduce the
precision of your geometries.
Refer to this thread:

In the future, I see us leaving this method, but adding an
ST_PrecisionReducer() method.
Cheers,
Kevin
