This method will help keep you from creating duplicate entries and make the creation and/or updating your POI file much easier and quicker.

Also, POI Factory users can easily delete out unwanted POIs if they only want a certain state or area.

Preparing your POI file

Some basic knowledge of Garmin’s Basecamp software is helpful.

Create a .gpx file with just your home or desired center point location as a POI.

Import it along with any files containing the desired POI’s into “My Collection” in Basecamp. All POI’s will now be displayed on the map screen.
