POI projects

Hi, everyone! After signing on to this site the otehr day, and seeing the great POI files everyone has done here (and they are far more accurate and complete than what is in my GPS), I wanted to join in. At my wife's suggestion, I looked for a POI file for a regional chain of department stores in the Mid-Atlantic, called Boscov's, and noticed there wasn't one.

I have downloaded a gpx file that ended up in my Favorite. How do I delete this file? I have been deleting each item one at a time. There has to be a faster way. Any suggestion?

I have downloaded POI file for TGIF which is formated as a GPX file. It went into my Favorite file. How do I download so that it will go into my Custom POI file. Do I change the GPX into .csv file. Need help.

Sac City Iowa claims to be the World Capital of Barn Quilts. Check out www.barnquilts.com for their claim.
My wife being a quilter and has made me take trips with her to quilt shows around the USA so here I go.
This Sept. 26th and 27th there will be a SAC CO. QUILT A Fair with quilt show and other things but the main thing is 56 barn Quilts throughout the county.

Hi Guys
Virginal post so be kind!

I have a TomTom 720 with lots of POI such as speed cameras, school zones etc.

The other day borrowed a friends Garmin who is also into his POIs. The Garmin had a great feature which I was hoping can be converted to the TomTom ie

Just was looking for "Pick your own" fruit/veg (Strawberry, Oranges, ....) POIs, but couln't find any. May be an idea to start one.

Thanks

I just uploaded the restaurants from the Food Network show "The Best Thing I Ever Ate". First 10 episodes so far with 82 locations. Should be available soon for viewing.

I was driving on the loneliest road in the US (US 50) this past weekend and I had never traveled the road before. I took my garmin nuvi with me and it put me at ease. One thing that I was lacking was a poi file with all fuel stops on it.

Although it is a little bit late for this year since it has already begun, I was thinking that having a POI file for the Minnesota State Fair might be handy. My wife, two sons, and I are planning on attending the fair tomorrow, but I was thinking that for some people it might be very handy to have some custom POIs for the fair.

Please use this forum to suggest additional WiFi hot spots in New York State. Additionally, please post any errors found in the POI file so that they can be corrected.

New updates will announced here.

Thought I'd take a shot at doing a POI of Michigan 18 hole golf courses.. Got the Extra poi editor running, and loading courses. Everything seemed to be going fine.

Started a POI file for Railroad Themed Restaurants.

Any additions would be appreciated.

It includes restaurants in former depots, former railroad cars or memorabilia.
I also included those more geared to the kids, where your food is delivered by a model train.

So, let me know your favorites!!

Thanks,
Chuck

I am a total music geek. I thought it would be fun to start a POI with historic music sites across the contry.

Rock N' Roll, Country, Blues, anything music.

Just to give you some ideas:
Graceland, Motown, Chess Records Studio...

Locations were famous, or infamous, events occured:
Riot House, Haight Ashbury, Fillmore, Death Locations...

What have you guys got?

This is a place holder for Johnm405 and his Spam project.

Hi,
I'm new to the forum and am looking for a Steep grade or Difficult road warning POI
I just drove a heavy trailer across the county and would have loved to know ahead of time when some harder pulls were coming
anyone seen a file like this or interested in creating one?

Thanks

Hi,

I went across the Border last week and discovered the Friendly's restaurants. Perfect if you have kids.

Today, I d/l the Friendly's POI from POI Factory and found out that the ones I went to were missing. I decided to update the file using all informations from Friendly's web site. Hey! Hey!

I started a POI file that is linked below of some uniquely fun restaurants that have more than just fun decor. This is a list of restaurants that are fun, interactive, and sometimes on the bizarre side. I want to avoid the restaurant chains, however, I did include Dixie Stampede and Medieval Times only because these do offer interaction and fun.

I don't know what happen to the recent Dunkins file but there are a lot of missing locations. Many where there before but are now gone. Did someone edit the file?

Don't know if this has been posted already, but on a trip this weekend through Virginia's I-95 and I-85, I saw that all the rest areas along these interstates, except the Welcome Stations, were closed. Probably result of budget cuts. It resulted in at least one stretched bladder... Anyway, a word to the wise: don't pass up the welcome stations!

msgreenf has given me the go ahead to take over the Qdoba project and update the 2 year old file. This is a fast expanding chain, and far too many locations are missing, and its too much work to do by myself. I need your help!
