You are using EPSG:3044, correct? http://spatialreference.org/ref/epsg/3044/
<http://spatialreference.org/ref/epsg/3044/>This projection has units of metres. ST_DWithin and related functions use the same units of length as defined in the projection, which in this case is metres, not degrees. You may need to elaborate with an example. -Mike On 7 March 2011 23:41, michal nagy <lachim1...@gmail.com> wrote: > Well, it sitll does not solve my problem.
