[gps-talkusers] Re: Navtech POIs

Hi Kevin,
I'll show the steps I've been using, who knows it might be the way I'm looking 
up stuff.

I chose an address in Moe that I know and wanted to see what else was around.

 

Virtual mode
address lookup
region - southeast
city - Moe (latrobe)
address number 19
street name - moore
set to virtual & destination
read F category - all
press enter for nearest points

 

now if you scroll down the list you'll find everything is repeated eventually 
with the different distances etc.  It's really annoying.

 

I'm assuming that this procedure is the right way to look around a place for 
POIs.

Can you provide the city name and some example of duplicatePOIs you saw?

I decided to check out the POIs in the next town as I want to go there and 
check out the shops (I live in the country).  I was really annoyed to find that 
most of the POIs there (Navtech) are entered twice, all with slightly different 
distances and in some cases even a different direction.  There aren't any User 
POIs in the town, they're all commercial.
 
I hate to think what awaits me when I look at the other nearby town as it's 
really large and if the POIs are repeated and incorrect there too, it'll be fun 
(not) for anyone trying to find their way.
