Hello all,

I need to run a query on a table that holds logged data from several
water flow meters.

I need the first and last values (with their associated time) for every
logger in a time range.

I've tried this that returns the min and max time in the desired range
for every logger, but i don't know how to get the associated data (the
row called caudal) for min and max .

select remota_id,min(hora),max(hora) from historicos where hora >
'2010-08-07' and hora <'2010-08-08 00:03' group by remota_id order by
remota_id;

remota_id | min | max
-----------+---------------------+---------------------
01 | 2010-08-07 00:00:30 | 2010-08-08 00:00:30
02 | 2010-08-07 00:00:06 | 2010-08-08 00:00:06
03 | 2010-08-07 00:00:03 | 2010-08-08 00:00:02
04 | 2010-08-07 00:00:06 | 2010-08-08 00:00:06
05 | 2010-08-07 00:00:01 | 2010-08-08 00:00:02
06 | 2010-08-07 00:00:02 | 2010-08-08 00:00:02
07 | 2010-08-07 00:00:06 | 2010-08-08 00:00:06
09 | 2010-08-07 00:00:06 | 2010-08-08 00:00:06
(8 filas)

I need some like this:

remota_id | min | max | min_caudal | max_caudal
-----------+---------------------+---------------------+------------+------------
01 | 2010-08-07 00:00:30 | 2010-08-08 00:00:30 | 976.04
| 904.21
02 | 2010-08-07 00:00:06 | 2010-08-08 00:00:06 | 829.71
| 764.42

Where min_caudal is the value of caudal in hora = min() and max_caudal
is the same for hora=max()

The data in the table is like this:

select hora,remota_id,caudal from historicos;

hora | remota_id | caudal
