Google Map's POIs, how to download for Sat Nav
So, you find a Google map with POIs , ever wondered how to download them and use on a Sat Nav. ?
You have found a map , for example:
Camp Sites in Africa Link Removed
to download the POIs paste this at the end of the URL:-
&output=kml
should look like this
Link Removed
press enter and the download should start, save the file.
The POIs will be in KML format , these can be converted for TT, Garmin, Navman, Autoroute etc. or any other format using a POI converter.
I use GPS Babel.. but there are others.
