this procedure is not for the faint at heart. You need to have some basic understanding of manipulating raw binary data. And it is worth mentioning again her that tampering with the existing POI.DAT is not permitted. What you can do is COMPLETELY replace it with your own creation, containing your own collected POIs. Is that really worth the effort?

Maybe you want to revisit your collection of custom POIs and combine some more POI groups.
