Welcome / open talk

This week we are recognizing, bobinot!

Bobinot has been a member for over three years. Although he’s relatively quiet on the forums, he maintains a rather motley group of POI files, such as Los Angeles MTA Rail Orange & Silver Lines, TGI Friday’s and Meineke-Canada & USA.
We appreciate his dedication to our site and in keeping his POI files up-to-date!

Thank you, bobinot!

I'm putting this up in the general thread so everyone will see this.

Once again the POI Factory's red light camera file more than likely saved me from a ticket while driving around on vacation yesterday in Fort Myers, Florida.

Not being versed in maps ,I got a new computer recently and now my Mapsource has no detail and neither does Base camp,other than a global map ,any help would be great.

I am looking for a GPS unit that I can download/import hundreds of addresses/Lats-Longs into from .xls/.cvs. The most stops a route may have are close to 1300; however our average routes are normally 500-800. I would like to either keep the routes on SD cards and change the routes on the GPS by simply changing SD cards or keep files on my PC and copy them into the unit when needed.

Anyone have any travel planning for this coming Holiday.also here in Ohio Starting JULY 1 speed limit will go up from 65 to 70/mph

There will be a lot of vehicles on the highways this Memorial Day weekend (5/25-27), because many folks have Monday off as well as the weekend.

Those of you who have the traffic feature will be in a better position to avoid crowded traffic areas. Here's where these units pay for themselves. I couldn't afford one this time. Maybe next time.

Drive safely!

I need a bmp icon for the Kum And Go gas station file. If someone could create a good one and upload it to the site, that would be great.
Oh. I have created a couple of lousy ones.

major city data missing on low clearance. How do I upload new waypoints for this folder.

Hey its been awhile since on this site. I have a question, up till now I have had no prob with loading cvs, and wav files till I got my new computer with windows 7. My question is when I use the POI loader at the end there is a window in the middle that say was not able to transfer wav file cause of wrong format.

To make it easier for newcomers to find the reference materials at POI Factory, we've created a new "learn" tab in the top navigation. This area will include tutorials and frequently asked questions, grouped into major subject areas.

Florida quietly shortened yellow light standards & lengths, resulting in more red light camera tickets for you

I just took delivery of a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee with UConnect 8.4AN--a gps system that appears, so far, to be a very good unit. Are there any other POI Factory folks who have/anticipate having such a system built into your car?
