HI I’m struggling with retuning data from the following query. It should be retuning all data within a 5k radius of a given Longitude, Latitude point.

Select stuff from MyGeoTable where ST_DWithin(ST_GeographyFromText(‘SRID=4326;POINT(LONG,LAT)’), geog,5000)

Is not retuning all data it should be best guess there is an issue with the Geography column  this was created from a geometry column which is a collection of points lines and polygons

I tried to recreate the Geography thus

Update MyGeoTable set geog = ­(ST_Transform(geom,4326));

This gives “ERROR: Geometry type (LINSTRING) dose not match column type (Polygon)”

My question  is twofold

1^st how can recreate the geography column, check it has worked?

2^nd  How might perform a similar query just using the geometry the 5k radius doesn’t have to be exact!

Thanx for your help
