Speedcamera POI s

Hiya all :)

Well i havent tried out any POI functions yet, ive been buissy with other stuff ( making guides etc. and working ) but now when i got my new Car Volvo S80 T6 im shure to have a ledded foot and rush by a speedcamera for sure :rofl:

Cant open up the file in a nice way to see coords, it seems to be compiled for TomTom :)

And some Mio files here: http://www.takes.se/Short_eng.htm

Because im a rookie at POI and usage i wanted to ask anyone that reads this if it would be possible to convert these to use with MapThis ;)

For a better world :thumbup:

Not just possible, but rather easy as well :). Anyone with decent understanding of scripting (or VIM :D) can at least convert the CSV files (you just need to swap latitude and longitude and remove extra spacing).

As for the OV2 files, you can convert these to CSV files using the ov2tools from http://www.tomtom.com/support/ce/support/nav_poi.php.

also here http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=33362
deniska explaint howto
you can convert from cvs, ov2 and klm to MapThis's POI format with gmdl tool

Here german speedcam carmin csv file.

- use this rar decompress it.

- open GMDL and go to POIS

- set the camera-icon

- klick the button CSV file and search you decompressed folder with the csv from garmin.

- now the list ist coming

-name your file to _blitzer for example

- push save and ready ;)

_ copy the file in your mapfolder

hi PDG, after you converted the csv/ov2 files in the right format for mapthis you also need an extra manual task to use them for example with a sound.. here is how my speedcamera pois are setted
