You are searching for GROUP BY.

A simple example:

test=*# select * from foo;        ts          | val
---------------------+-----2007-05-01 08:00:00 |  102007-05-01 08:00:00 |  202007-05-02 10:00:00 |  202007-05-02
11:00:00|  30
 
(4 rows)

Time: 1.079 ms
test=*# select ts::date, sum(val) from foo group by 1;    ts     | sum
------------+-----2007-05-02 |  502007-05-01 |  30
(2 rows)
