2.5.9 POI (Points of Interest)
A point of interest (POI) is a location that someone might find useful or interesting. Nav N Go
iGO 8 is delivered with thousands of POIs and you can also create your own POIs in the
application.
POI locations are marked on the map with special icons. POI icons are quite large so you can
easily recognise the symbol. The icons are also semi-transparent: they do not cover the
streets and intersections behind them.
POIs are grouped into several levels of categories and subcategories. The icon of a POI that
comes with the map shows the symbol of the POI category. If you save your own POI, you
can select an icon for it independently of the POI category you have put it in.
