(It would probably be better to start a new thread for this, but I'll go ahead and give a quick response here.)
Automotive models are usually pretty light on recreational POIs like summits, waterfalls, rapids, etc. You may sometimes find these POIs in handheld / off road GPS models.
For things like populated places and lakes, you'll likely find a lot of overlap, but POI Factory often has extra data for smaller lakes/ponds/neighborhoods.
For hospitals, schools, and post offices, you'll probably find a lot of automotive models have better data (depends on the manufacturer.)
Questions
