Hi all

I downloaded the poi's from the free poi link further down this page. On opening the zip file I found a lot of food and fuel poi's that I don't need or want. Can I edit or delete part of the data base to remove the ones I don't want and the data base still be useable, or will it corrupt it?

I am not unfarmiliar with editing files etc, but I was concerned about copyright, licences and codes etc.

Excellent site and the best cam data base I have found......Period

Thanks

Where did you download them from? If from us, then why not just download the ones you do want?

I downloaded them from the link at the bottom right corner of this page, just underneath where it says "click here for speed cameras".

I downloaded the food ones, but it is one data base with all the food places in it. I just want to put the food stops I can get to on a motorbike, ie Mcdonalds, Little chef etc. I do not need to put the resturant ones, as an example, in as I will not be frequenting them on my motorcycle.

Thanks for your help.

If you Mouse Click the "+" beside the Food and Drink heading it will expand to show all the subcategories that are available.

Just select those you want, and use the Combine Option, at the bottom, to download them into one POI File.
