Columbus POI file(s) to get or buy

Featured Replies

Hello everybody,

I would like to know where to get hold on a file for the Columbus POI files. I can understand that you can make you own, but Im a novice on this field, and it seems to be a lot of work. I would like to have for the whole Europe, since I travel a lot, then it could be nice to get the local POIs.

Where do I find a file that contain this information?

These should already be on the disc so no need to make your own. Or are you looking to add in different ones?

Well, there are no POIs on the 2012 map disc. I have just installed the new map. I have a LED model C Columbus, and I can be infront of a hospital, and search for hospitals for example, and it says "nothing found". So I dont think there are any POI on this map disc (at least not in my country, Denmark).

But I can read that there are already many (homemade) files that contain POI, one can put on the 10 GB partition of the HDD on Columbus for the maps, POI etc... So I am searching if someone could tell me where to find these files...

I just checked my map which is the latest V9 and it has all of the POI's showing up on it for Denmark. So don't know why yours does not have it. Is it a genuine disc or a copy? I know sometimes with copies the files can be too big to fit on a standard DVD so some people remove the POI's to make it fit on the disc.
