Hey there all,
I'm new to the forums but also understand I'm new to the whole POI thing so don't jump down my throat if I'm upsetting anyone please! I do merchandising work for 26 Sears stores in the Central New York, New Hampshire, Vermont, and parts of Ohio regions. I bought a Garmin StreetPilot i5 and its great but it has taken me to some incorrect locales with the preloaded data...and I tried updating the map on their website but ran into some snags and can't seem to figure it out. Obviously when I ran across the POI loader I got really excited but I can't seem to find any files for Sears stores! Can anybody help?
Make your own POI's
I'm pretty new to this also, but if you'll use this site:
http://gpsvisualizer.com/convert?form=address to find the coordinates for each of your 26 Sear stores and use Excel to set up your files as prescribed by studying the faq & help info on the POI Factory site and save you files in a csv format, you can't go wrong using the POI Loader to put the coordinates and info on each of your locations into your StreetPilot i5. Try doing just a couple locations until you get the idea. Good luck!

Hardly all U.S. locations there..

[Hardly all U.S. locations there..
Had mine and the one during my Baltimore TDY. It is a good start for sure.

Send them on

If you find some Columbus locations be sure to send them to him so he can add them to the collection. It seems to be growing daily.

It will be rapidly updated
It will be rapidly updated as stores close on a regular basis there. And don't forget the Kmarts.
