| Posted by steve.ingram07 Multiple speed camera files There seems to be duplication of files I understand where there are combined speed and red light camera files, but it seems to get all the files, you have to use the following files Speed_Cameras_au.CSV Speed_Camera.CSV Speed_Red_Camera.CSV Some of these provide locations close to each other (obviously one or in some cases, are not quite on the mark) so you get multiple alerts. Some appear on one file but not the other. One example is the camera on the corner of the Tuggeranong Parkway and Hindmarsh Drive in Canberra - driving through there gave me three different alerts for the one camera because they were all about 15 metres apart. Which is the "right one" and aside from combing all three, what's the answer?? |

| Posted by Mark Re: Multiple speed camera files- why? Hi I agree that it is not nice to have repeated camera alerts. As you know, our registered users can add camera locations and other interesting POI locations. Unfortunately, some users list some POI locations more than once. We clean our database and remove obvious duplicates, however, we relay on a community spirit. Your knowledge is important to us. All duplicated camera locations should be reported (delete) and we will remove them ASAP. In addition, you should download CUSTOMERS ONLY marked files. You do not need to install free camera POI files and you will not be alerted twice for any camera location that is listed in our free database. Regards |

| Posted by mjc Speed and redlight camera data i'm having a bit of difficulty understanding this myself. for example you have Speed Cameras Speed and Red Light Cameras Mobile Speed Cameras Fixed Speed Cameras what exactly goes into what category? are both "mobile" and "fixed" speed cameras fit into the "speed cameras" category? it seems a bit confusing.. i was also puzzled by Red Light Cameras Fixed Red Cameras in my mind, the definition of a red light camera means it has to be fixed? are there any other kind? so whats the difference between the two categories?? are you able to make it somewhat clearer about what files we need to get all the POI's - without getting overlaps? thanks! |

| Posted by carlenglish Location duplicates Mark, I'm experiencing the same agonizing story as others when it comes to duplication of cameras. For instance, if I was willing to search through all of the cameras located in Houston, Texas looking for duplicates, I still wouldn't be sure if what I was eliminating is the correct thing to do. I noticed that many entries actually listed the street intersection name. This should be mandantory, not optional. If anyone can add, a template for adding locations is essential or else the data has less to no value (at least for me). The template should be very restrictive and simply not allow coordinates to be entered that are already in the database that are too close to existing data points |
