Hi,
I have a table establishment which contains these columns: id, name,
longitude, latitude.
I want to select all the establishments in the table establishment within a
radius from a reference point which is a given establishment.
For example:
I have a given establishment called establishment1 and has an id=1.
I want to display all the establishments within a radius 1km from this
establishment.
I wrote this query:
select e.name,e1.name, e1.longitude, e1.latitude
from establishment as e, establishment as e1
where e.id = 1
and e.id <> e1.id
and ST_DWithin(ST_SetSRID(ST_MakePoint(e1.longitude, e1.latitude),
4326),ST_MakePoint(e.longitude, e.latitude)::geography, 1000) ;

Is it a good practice to iterate the rows of the table like I did and does
not have an effect in the performance if the number of table's rows
increase?
