stupid question. do I need a single .gpx or .kmz file for each type of POI or do they include a number of different categories for my area?


I went here


http://poi.gps-data-team.com/united_s...


but haven`t been able to download anything yet.


I`m coming from Garmin and Lowrance country and I`m trying to learn!

You have to download what you need.


Nobody knows what you need :)


What kind of POI are you searching for?


...but haven`t been able to download anything yet.


This is a user problem.. ;-) it works well on your posted website.


If you have problems to import in Locus - i can help you - but i`m not able to teach you "how downloading a file from the web".

thank you for being so patient. it looks like I`m in for quite a bit of downloading lol.


sort of general stuff. shops. petrol stations. govt agencies. restaurants. all that kind of stuff I got hooked on with the garmin and lowrance. I`m also on a state border so I`ll have to do it for 2 states.


I`d be looking for a lot of different things. and I was able to download a file when I register to do that lol.
