Hooters POI

I have made the change in the file, thanks for pointing it out.

Miss POI

I passed a Hooters in Traverse City, MI at 44° 44.729', -85° 32.351' that seems to be missing from the file.

Can you please get the address for me and put the coordinates in the other format and I will get it added to the file.

Thanks,

Miss POI

We have a new Hooters in Dartmouth (part of the Halifax Regional Municipality) in Nova Scotia, Canada. Located on Gordon Ave and Main St. The Coords are N44.68169 and W63.54089

I was driving just outside of Houston this week and saw a Hooters on the south side of the freeway. I checked my Garmin and specifically the Hooter POI and it wasn't listed.
It was at 22575 Katy Fwy Katy, TX 77450.

I have caught this file up to date. Can someone take of the management of it. It looks to be one of those abandoned files.

Thanks,

Miss POI

Hooters: Matthews is closed (row 124)

I have that line removed now, thanks for the report.

Miss POI

The Hooters in Madison WI has closed; the newspaper article says they're looking for another location but no site has been decided upon.

That location has been removed, thanks.

Miss POI

The one good thing I learned at Hooters, besides the lovely waitresses, is this trick. They serve a pitcher of beer with a Zip-Lock bag of ice in it. No watering down of your favorite beverage, and it keeps it cool.
This from an Ex-AirForce Airman who has drank his fair share of suds.

The Pasadena, California branch closed early in October.

Hooters in Manchester, Salem,& Nashua, NH have all closed.

No phone numbers?

One of the little bonuses I like on a GPS is finding a place in the POI files with a phone number in case I need to call ahead, get hours of operation, and so on. I really am glad I found this place, but phone numbers as part of the POI file would be great.

Thank goodness we have this file straight now!

I have the phone number now: 1-339-600-7311

Good idea and since it's yours (and surely nobody wants to steal it from you) go for it! Open the Hooters POI and start adding those numbers. The effort will be appreciated

If you still need someone, feel free to transfer it to me.

Dom

Dom,
I have transferred the file to you Dom, go ahead and check the thread and make the changes that have been reported since my last change please.

Miss POI

Will do. I have already reformatted the file for my spreadsheet and will be creating both the CSV and GPX files from it. I should have something ready by the end of the day. It gives me a little break from the Applebee's file.

Dom

Thanks,

It will in the next upload of the file.

Dom

No promisses but I will try to track down the phone numbers. It may take a bit of time as I am also updating the Applebee's file but I'll do my best.

Dom

I just cheked their website. It is very easy to navigate to find the locations and their info. I have already grabbed all the phone numbers for the Alabama locations.

I should be able to upload a file with most (if not all) the phone numbers later today or tomorrow.

Dom

The file has been re-named to show it is all US & Canadian locations. Entries have been reformatted to include all phone numbers that were available. (all but 1 location) Names have also been made unique to help import into MGLN units.

I have also created and uploaded the GPX version of the file. I have asked Miss POI to link the two files.

I did NOT verify the accuracy of the co-ordinates, only the phone number and address

Let me know if you see any errors in the file.

Dom

Wow. You sure are fast, Dom! According to the site, I only posted that request 10 hours ago!

I'm still learning this stuff, but I'd imagine that there's a tutorial thread. I'll search for it so I can contribute to the community.

Let's hear it for Dom, though!

Thank you Perrdom for all this work, but there is a slight mix-up:

The link under Hooters - US & Canada (GPX File) relates to: Applebees - USA.gpx (1.34 MB) instead of the Hooters gpx file.

The CSV page is correct.

Sorry about that. I'll fix it in a few minutes.

Dom

Done.

Thanks
Dom

The CSV file has the phone number data, but when I convert it and put it on my GPS, the phone number data is not there.

I tried MakeOV2 and POIEdit, and neither seems to pick up the phone number data.

Suggestions?

The St Petersburg Hooters has moved across the street to the far side of Tyrone Square Mall. The new address is 6901 22 Ave N (same city, state, zip & phone). Per Google Earth, the coordinates are:
-82.7343/27.7928

Hi NextActionHero,

The OV2 file does not contain the phone number. The CSV file contains the phone number but it is not formatted in a way that MakeOV2 or POIEdit can read them. You would need a CSV with the 3rd column formatted like this: "POI_Name>Phone" The ">" is used to indicate the phone number.

Anyways. To honnor this great institution (LOL!) I took the liberty of creating a GPX file and an OV2 file using Extra_POI_Editor. I used it to have an OV2 file with phone numbers. As for the GPX, I splitted the address fields using the proper M-Column formatting. I hope these files are of some use to the author or to yourself.

The St Petersburg Hooters (formerly 2901 Tyrone Blvd) has moved across the street to the far side of Tyrone Square Mall. The new address is 6901 22 Ave N (same city, state, zip & phone). Per Google Earth and MS Streets & Trips, the coordinates are:
-82.7343/27.7928

Thanks,

First, is your GPX file different (more complete) that the one I have at:
http://www.poi-factory.com/node/19163

Second, would it be easier if I precede all the phone numbers in my CSV files with ">". I try to include the phone number and both CSV and GPX formats of all my files. I just want to be sure that it would help.... and no cause any other problems.

Thanks again
Dom

Thanks,

I will update the file later today or tomorrow.

Dom

There are two locations in St Petersburg.

1. Hooters of North St Petersburg, 10400 Roosevelt Blvd

2. Hooters of St Petersburg, 2901 Tyrone Blvd

Can you confirm which one you want me to change.

Thanks
Dom

..... I missed that.... you already indicated which one.... ignore this message.

1- Keep yours. Except for minor things, yours is perfect. I just proposed this GPX because I cound not find it because it is on a different page than the CSV and OV2.

2- The >phone is only for OV2 file. It will work also on the CSV, but only if the phone (with ">" ) is the last thing on yoiur 4th column (to be confirmed). I simply suggest when you create the OV2 file that you use Extra_POI_Editor, load your GPX and save as OV2. EPE will automatically do it for you if you start from your GPX.

Regards,

Turbo

The CSV and GPX files have been uploaded with the correction to St Petersburg that rneumann49 submitted.

Thanks for the updates.
Both updated files have been uploaded.

Dom

Burlington Vermont Hooters no longer in business.

Thanks,

I have removed this location from my files and uploaded them.

Dom

The location at Pacific Beach in San Diego, California has closed.

I updated the files and sent them to Miss POI to post.

Do you have the new one in West Springfield, Mass?

You enter the parking lot here:
42° 8'21.03"N
72°37'35.82"W

I like to put the business phone also:
(413) 301-9741

I am told their chicken wings are great. I have been waiting for this place to open.

Do you have the address including city & zip?

Personally, I would never go there for the food! I have not had a good meal at any of them. The are pretty consistent. Kind of fun to go for the experience but not a great place to eat.
