POI projects

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!!!

Miss POI

Whilst the files on this site are very useful I have only a limited amount of space for POI on my Navman S70. I travel to the USA most years and would really welcome POI's grouped by location (e.g. State) as well as by type. That way I could load my SatNav with just the files I need for a trip rather than trying to load 1000's of POI for the whole of USA.

Several months ago I decided to adopt (and save) a new dog from an animal shelter. I have been visiting several shelters in and around Fort Worth, but I'm learning there are far more than I ever imagined. I thought what a great help it would be if my GPS could help save a pet and give him or her a new home.

I downloaded the Starbucks file. It had only one Starbucks entry from my city. However, when I used my Garmin to look up "Starbucks", the GPS found the other 4 Starbucks. Where did it get them, since they weren't in the Starbucks POI download file?

I compiled a list of all of the Shari's Restaurants. I started with the online lists of restaurants from sharis.com, asking for a state at a time.

Used Google on the street address to fill in the city, state, and zip code. Also used it to replace the incorrect 555 phone numbers that existed in the sharis.com website.

Does anyone have a POI that lists all the waterfalls in NZ?

I have a suggestion for a new POI file - i searched and didn't see anything on this.

There is a book out called waterfalls of ontario and I just wanted to see if anyone has done it, thought of doing it or wants to help me do it.

I just picked up the book and its a whole tourguide of all 80 waterfalls in ontario.

I would LOVE to have ALL the Wifi Hot Spots for At&T in Florida I would even pay for it (well a few bucks LOL)

Can anyone help?

What happened to the weigh stations POI. I noticed almost all the I-5 sites are missing and some others also. Is a new file being created.

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for a list of independent coffee houses, small, cozy, non-corporation coffee houses around united states. Anyone has something similar?

Whenever I search for "Coffee" only, POI I get is Starbucks! It'd be fun to explore unknown coffee shops.

Hello...

Yesterday I added a new POI File, using data from a website I run, http://ridetoeat.com. You can find the POI file at http://www.poi-factory.com/node/25173.

Though there will of course be significant overlap, it is different from other restaurant lists in that it is not about just good restaurants, nor about where to eat when traveling.

Anyone have any suggestions for the best red light POI sources for PA, NJ, NY?

Hello. Was browsing around the site and found an addition to the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf POI file that's not included in the one listed on here. Here's the specs:

-117.921646 33.859324 Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf "Fullerton 205 Orangefair Ave. Space 11A Fullerton CA 92832 (714) 447-4160"

I recently used 4 POI files on a trip to Kentucky and was distressed to find that several of the locations were unusable and about half were marginally useful.

By the third day, we just entered the address and ignored the POI files I had downloaded.

Does anyone have the coordinates of the Fowler Ridge Wind Farm in Indiana? Can the turbines be seen in Google Earth satellite view? Or, were the images taken before the turbines were built?

Edit: I should have searched the POI files first! It's in there (Benton County, IN)

Hi, has anybody done a POI of the CVS drug stores, either all states or just Calif? I did a search and just
find east part of USA
