It's actually in the doc for the to_char() function.  'WW' uses a week
definition where January 1st is in week 1.    If you use 'IW', you get
the ISO definition.

=> select to_char(now(),'yyyyIW'); to_char
--------- 200804
(1 row)


=> select extract(week from now()); date_part
-----------         4
