REVIEW: RV Directions 2009 POI CDThis CD makes a great companion for Street & Trips (any version). It contains over 50,000 locations that are focused on the needs of today’s active RV’er. It includes categories such as:
It is designed to work with Microsoft Streets & Trips releases from 2004 and later. On the CD you’ll find Streets & Trips Template files (.stt) loaded with various POI, icons that can be used for custom pushpin symbols, CSV files which can be imported in to show multiple categories on one map. What impressed me the most was the huge amount of information for each location! For example - campgrounds have the usual name, address and phone number but also Affiliation (Good Sam, etc), price, details on the campground sites (wifi, pull thru’s, big rigs, etc), quality rating, directions, contact email address, website, Web Map URL etc. In fact the information overloads our information balloons and in order to view all the data you need to do the “click and drag down” selecting all the balloon contents. Like with any other points of interest that you import into Streets & Trips they become available in the “find nearby places” searches along side the built-in POI. Microsoft Streets & Trips comes with over 1.5 million points of interest so why do I need this?
