Personal Navigation Devices (PNDs) or Personal Navigation Assistants (PNAs) usually support user defined Points of Interest (POIs). A common format to store this information, is described below:
POI
Path to user defined POIs
\backup\user.upoi or \MobileNavigator\save\user.upoi
is the path you see if you insert the SD-card into a card reader. From
within the PNA/PND, the pay may read \SDMMC\MobileNavigator\save\user.upoi.
Format of user defined POIs
