POI improvements!
-
Hi all
The website has received a nice update
We have implemented a long requested improvement to our POI library!Custom icon
When adding your own POI icon, you can now select any icon you like from the existing icon set
Show your own libraries
You could display your own POI libraries already.
The difference now is that we keep displaying them!
Even after refreshing the page / using another computer.
Edit: as there seems to be quite some confusement about this, the functionality that stores what POI libraries to show for routes is limited to your own POI libraries, not the general POI search categories (tab #1)
Change icons of POI libraries
Yes indeed, add a custom icon to any of your POI libraries
Now you can add a nice icon to reflect the meaning of your POI library.
Default account libraries
Even better!
Do you always want to show a certain POI library? Why not?
Simply click the account icon to add them to your default POI set.
Any POI library within that group will be displayed at all times.
In the example above, all speed traps in the region will be displayed on all my routes.
Edit: as there seems to be quite some confusement about this, you can only add your own POI libraries to be shown by default for all your route. Not the general POI search categories (tab #1)
Displayed in MyRoute-app
Obviously our app will also remember your choices.
When you've selected those POI libraries and view them in our app, the relevant POI's will be displayed too
Isn't this an amazing update?
In short:
- Choose custom POI icons
- Select an icon for an entire POI library
- Display POI libraries by default for a route
- Display POI libraries by default for your account
- Synced with our app (for routes only)
This saves so many time compared to constantly adding POI's one by one.
Cheers,

And there should be an option to create POIs from the route planner in addition to just be able to add waypoints.
Secondly, it would be nice to create custom POI libraries within the route planner, not only by uploading a POI library.

Toch een klein puntje van "kritiek". Ik begrijp, dat de grootste gemene deler binnen MRA toch wel het motorrijden is. Dan is het wel jammer, dat ik bij de POI-icoontjes geen motor zie

Mooie update, gaaf!! Nu nog de mogelijkheid om POIβs toe te voegen en te verwijderen in een bestaande lijst/bibliotheek
-
It's not clear to me where I can find:
- POI libraries (e.g. th Shell_Fuel_NL.ov2" and "Benelux Flitspalen""
- (own) icons to upload
Any help is appreciated!

Deze tekst in misschien handig voor belangstellenden:
Er zijn twee manieren om in MRA Routeplanner een groep POI's in de bibliotheek toe te voegen:
1. POI-bestand importeren:
Klik op het tabblad 'POI's' in de Bibliotheek.
Klik op de knop 'Importeren'.
Selecteer het POI-bestand dat je wilt importeren (meestal in .ov2 of .csv of .txt formaat).
Klik op 'Openen'.
De POI's worden in de bibliotheek geΓ―mporteerd en gegroepeerd op basis van het type of de categorie die in het bestand is gedefinieerd.2. Handmatig toevoegen:
Klik op het tabblad 'POI's' in de Bibliotheek.
Klik op de knop 'Toevoegen'.
Vul de details van de POI in, inclusief naam, locatie, type, categorie en andere relevante informatie.
Klik op 'Opslaan'.
De POI wordt toegevoegd aan de bibliotheek en niet gegroepeerd, tenzij je deze handmatig toevoegt aan een bestaande groep.Tips:
-
list itemJe kunt POI-bestanden vinden om te importeren op verschillende websites, zoals POI-Factory (http://www.poi-factory.com/)
-
Zorg ervoor dat het POI-bestand dat je importeert compatibel is met MRA Routeplanner. Het bestand moet ten minste de kolommen 'naam' en 'coΓΆrdinaten' bevatten.
-
Je kunt POI's bewerken en verwijderen in de bibliotheek.
-
Je kunt groepen POI's maken en beheren in de bibliotheek.
Extra informatie:
MRA Routeplanner ondersteunt het importeren van POI-bestanden in verschillende formaten, waaronder OV2, CSV, TXT, GPX en ITN.Je kunt POI's exporteren vanuit de bibliotheek naar een bestand voor gebruik in andere applicaties.
Je kunt POI's in je routes gebruiken om ze te markeren als interessante locaties of tussenstops. -

@Corjan-Meijerink Hi Corjan, are there any specific websites that keep up-to-date POI lists? Most I have found are very old. Maybe we can have a forum here for sharing POI files?

@Tom-Grzelinski I enjoy this: https://www.gps-data-team.com/poi/
Feel free to start a forum post to aggregate good sites

Hmm, if I understand you right, I need to change the "Favorites" to "POI" and then I can use the POI as Navigation points, while creating a NEW Route.
I am going to try that shortly and let you know.
Thanks for the Tipp. -

The icons on the Custom POI page is fairly self explanatory except for the "profile" icon, all it seems to do is update but update what??

A clicking on the profile icon will show other custom libraries.
...and the reason why it done nothing for me was I only had one library associated with that section of map.
Could be a useful feature.One improvement that needs to be made is to make the Custom Library POIs show up on the 10km map scale like the ones in the Manage Library.
I can't see the big picture at 3km, where I could join up a set of POIs into a viable route. -
