Hi Steve I have set my virtual to your street and amazing I get the same.
I wonder if this is a file problem the europe must think about it. I have tom tom and navigon on my iphone and also blind square wonder if I can set a virtual in any of these to see what other pois we should have. I kept an older copy of the maps on my laptop but I think the apex 2013 would not run on the older maps. wonder what the problem is but it is strange on your pc program you get the same.
thanks for pointing this out.

Hi

Further to my earlier email regarding the paucity of POIs on the UK maps. I have now had the opportunity of carrying out further tests using Sendero Maps on my PC with the same downloaded maps. The results are still the same.

From my address in Brunswick Street, Reading, I am finding only two POIs Reading West railway station which is approximately 600 ft and the POI that marks Reading as a place approx. 0.9 miles away. Between my home and that POI there is the length of the high street (Broad Street) which used to have a very large number of shops, banks and other POIs.

Moving to central London using a junction of Whitehall I am getting only six POIs. Again I would expect there to be a large number of POIs in the centre of London.

Similar low number of POIs are coning up at other locations.

If the POI information has been reduced this drastically no wonder the search has been speeded up. I really suspect that there is something wrong with the map download.

Please would somebody look into this matter.

Thanks.

Steve
