Adding Toilets as a POI
-
Where can I find a file with UK toilets listed on it, and then add them as POI’s on the map so that I can then add a waypoint nearby.
Thanks -

Thanks@TelBoy-0 Here is a link for a csv file for UK Toilet POIs Save it to your computer and then use the Upload tab and choose to upload as POI. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1qv5OgJ4tN9UYGEfqM6u6d8KPoqHlNzrE/view?usp=drive_link

@Nick-Carthew Hi Nick, thanks for that, worked a treat

Do we perhaps also have a similar POI file for the Netherlands and maybe also for Germany and Belgium?

@white.mouse You could search in this website:

You can harvest them off Open Street Map data using QGIS and the Quick OSM add in. Then export them to a GPX file using the QGIS POI exporter.

There are too many in the Netherlands and Germany for one query so divide the query into administrative areas.

So for the Netherlands a Query for Drenthe and North Holland.

The results

This is one I created for the Great Britain and Ireland

And what it looks like as a POI upload. This has to be manipulated as the field data for MyRoute POI's is limited to Long Lat and Field name.

Personally I load these POI's into my Garmin XT via Garmin POI loader with an audible proximity warning of 0.5 miles even though I predominantly use MyRoute app for navigation.
