Using community POI lists
You can find collections of community POIs on the internet and upload them to My Places using
MyDrive in a web browser. A POI collection might contain, for example, campsites or restaurants for
the area you are traveling in, and provides an easy way to select a location without the need to
search for the location each time.
Tip: Some TomTom Navigation devices have POI lists pre-installed.
Your VIA uses .OV2 files for POI collections.
