This is why we decided on the sharedPOIs folder. Users would copy files into each map folder this took up valuable disk space.


The answer to synchronizing to your SD card question is yes.

This method sounds awesome! Before I had to copy poi's into all the map
folders that I was using most often but now all I have to do is add it once
to the shared folders. Wow, I am so excited.
I need to check out this sendero map program and load it onto my laptop. Can
I sink stuff using a card reader for my sd card?

This is correct.
Anything that is not zipped in the map zip files goes into the
sharedPOIs folder.

For example, if you download New York and unzip it, that gets unzipped
into the maps folder.  If you download the usa-user.zip (user submitted
POIs) this goes into the sharedPOIs folder.

SenderoMaps 2012 does all this for you.

I downloaded the gnis poi's and where should I put them?
I'm supposing that it is in the shared folder, right?

Hi all,

For those that are not using SenderoMaps 2012 to synchronize the user
submitted POIs to your BrailleNote or Sense Navigation, if you go to
www.gosendero.com and download the POIs manually, you should now copy
those files into your sharedPOIs folder and not the maps folder.

Your user.pdb and favorites files will also be moved from the maps
folder into the sharedPOIs folder as well.
