I wonder if anyone can point me to the format of the .ov2 files as used with
TomTom POI files please?

I'm trying to convert a number of locations to .ov2 format but I not
succeeding to find the file format information.

I'm not looking for a program to actual do it, what I am after is the actual
format of the data so I can write my own converter.

Hopefully someone can put me in the right direction. Even a URL to a site
which has the information will be ok.

Neil..

I should have also written - look at the section on the input format for
one of the POI tools (MAKEOV2)

I suggest that you email Mr Davies, who wrote the POI Converter program - at
gpsutilities-software@yahoo.co.uk

He should know!

Why re-invent the wheel? POI-Converter will create an OV2 file from a .csv
file of Lat/Lon locations?
