How to make POI set
-
Hi, I want to make a poi set of all our club members.
Does anyone know how to make that? -
@Hanza-0 you have to distribute by gps file
-
@Hanza-0 Position a route point at each location that you want a POI. Name the route point with the name that you would like to see in the POI. The route planner will plan a route, you’re not interested in the route, just the positions of each route point, but at this point you could name the route with the name that you would like your list of POIs to be called. When they are all in place, Choose Save as and save it as a .CSV file to your PC. You can share this file for friends to add to their MRA POI Library and you can add it to your MRA POI Library like this:
To add it to your library, go to Route lab and click Upload, choose the POI tab. Click the green Choose files button and add the .CSV file then click Import.
You will now see your POIs in Library tab of your MRA POI library. -
If I follow this procedure I get an empty Excel file. Should I start by creating a new route, place the points in it, rename them and then save the route as and then choose Poi file? to then distribute it and then import it into MRA?

@Peter-Bijnsdorp Yes
-
@Nick-Carthew If I follow that procedure then I create a empty Excel file.

Sorry, I gave the wrong information, here are the correct instructions:
Open a new route and name it with the name that you would like for your POI list.
Position a POI at each location that you want a POI.
To do this, go to POIs and open the Manage tab, click Add and click on the map where you would like your POI positioned and give your POI a name.When they are all in place, Choose Save as and save it as a .CSV file to your PC. You can share this file for friends to add to their MRA POI Library and you can add it to your MRA POI Library like this:
To add it to your library, go to Route lab and click Upload, choose the POI tab. Click the green Choose files button and add the .CSV file then click Import.
You will now see your POIs in Library tab of your MRA POI library. -
Thanks for the last correct description for making a Poi set. I ran it and it works perfectly, a very welcome feature.
Greetings Peter -
@Hanza-0 how did you manage your collection of club members now. Are they in an Excel document or otherwise?
