POI projects

To whom ever is maintaining the Baja Fresh file (mcmargarine?), the restaurant in Red Bank, NJ (Middletown) no longer exists.

I did not see any topic here to post missing Hampton Inns in the Hampton Inn POI file, so here are a few.

-75.97545 42.12090 Hampton Inn Binghamton/Johnson City
630 Field St-Johnson City-NY-(607) 729-9125

-75.9831 42.09617 Hampton Inn & Suites Vestal
3708 Vestal Pkwy E-Vestal-NY-(607) 797-5000

-76.23676 42.23676 Hampton Inn Owego
1030 State Route 17C-Owego-NY-(607) 687-4600

To the keeper/maintainer of this file:

The combined: WalMart, Sam's Clubs, and Super WalMart Centers US and Canada Combined POI contains an error in the location of one of the Sam's stores in the St. Louis area.

1. The coordinates for "St. Louis Park" location sends you to baugrandger Road the store does not exist at that location.

I used the Golden corral POI file that I downloaded from this site. However, the location of the Akron Golden corral, at 79 Springside Drive was not accurate. I was with a friend and I said, turn left (according to the GPS) and he said, "but I see the sign for it on the right". I said, the GPS is never wrong! Opps! It was.

I have a Garmin nuvi 750. When i download a POI and then download another POI it earases the first one that i download. Can i do anything about that?

just upgraded to beta 4.4.5 due to a runtime error in 4.4.2. this new version has a limit of a 100 entries. is there a setting to override this limit?

I am in NYC. Can someone post all Checkers restaurants instead of Drive Ins only please?

Thank you.

would like to see a POI files for all the beaches in the US.

It wss suggested that I start a new thread for a diner list POI -- the old-fashioned diners where you can get anything to eat at any time day or night. I am not sophisticated enough to know how to do this so any help would be appreciated.

Are there any POI Files for the Middle East? Dubai?

This is to let anyone interested in this file, that I am presently updating the file to reflect the latest Dealership Listing.

Hi!

I am a total noob to gps. In fact, I am trying to help a friend with her Garmin 260. I was directed to this site by someone on the Airstream forum. I have looked around quite a bit here and have a few questions.

I'm going to be on a VERY long trip in the next few weeks....

Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Illinois, Ohio, the North East, Midwest, and then finally, home sweet flat barren desert home.

Give me some ideas for what would be most beneficial to the site. I will have a laptop, and Garmin C330 (borrowed from a relative) with me.

I have a Nuvi 760 and would like to use a POI list that I have downloaded to my PC. Would some one please tell me how I get the list onto my Garmin Nuvi 760 for use?

I am having a problem removing previously installed custom POI's on my Nuvi 255W. Using the Garmin POI Loader with the removal checked with both my Garmin and external card does nothing. The custom POI's still show up.
I have even installed new custom POI's to overwrite the old but they still remain.
Where do they reside so can remove with a cardreader.
Thanks--

There is a new store in Tampa, FL:

6250 Commerce Palms Dr
Tampa, FL 33647
813-402-3211

-82.377889,28.114396

This is one of 6 new stores in the Tampa Bay area opened in October.

I've decided to make a more detailed LA Fitness POI database, hopefully it is done in the next couple days. I have used the old one but it is missing phone # and address info.

Think it would be useful to have the hours and/or class schedule too? I'd have to come up with some super condensed format to fit all that info :/

that's all folks.

Yup our friend from the Computer America show has been busy with more GPS addiction.

Just see what he has put together: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mP1kEYyuSiI

I can't wait to see future videos from him, I have faith that he will include his favorite GPS community in his future projects.

What a great guy!!!
