How do I submit camera locations?     
Hi all

Love the site and want to help......... how do I submit a camera location that is not on you database.

If I need co-ordinates ....how do I get it off my GPS (I own a TOM TOM GO500).

Thanks

Bidgee,
You can use this map tool to find coordinates:

How do you use the Co-ordinates finder?     
How do I use Co-ordinates Finder? What I mean is, I have found the intersection in Melbourne that I wanted but it shows an area, a large radius, around it. Can you lock in on an exact location of the intersection? If I want to use it again, how do I get straight back to Melbourne (or do I have to drag all the way down from Sydney, like I did this time)?

How do you use the Co-ordinates finder?     
Single click (or click and drag) in any direction to navigate, double click on location to re-centre. Longitude and latitude of the map centre are displayed.

Navigation bar (the top left corner of the map) is for fast navigation (up, down, left and right). Zoom in and out with 2 buttons below the navigation bar.

The most important: co-ordinates below the map are Lon and lat of the map centre (or location which you select with double click).

Fast city selection will be available soon.

On the maps edit page can we add, Text boxes of the co-ordination of longitude and longitude, so you can cut & paste in the POIEdit online.
Just make in quicker as you have to write down the longitude and latitude everytime to add to POIedit online database.

Excellent suggestion...

Text box added to www.gps-data-team.com/map/ pages as requested.

New "Add" and "Edit" POI tools are added to www.gps-data-team.com/poi/ POI download zone.

How to use it:

1. Select location on the map (e.g. http://www.gps-data-team.com/map/index.php?lat=-34.04072&lon=150.7366&zoom=16 )
2. Use longitude, latitude and description from provided text box (just below the map).
3. Click on "Add" link
4. Paste data from clipboard, edit description and press submit.

Press "Edit" link if you want to edit your location.

I hope this helps.

Regards

Help with submitting POIs on map     
I have been trying to submit some camera POIs via:

http://www.gps-data-team.com/map/index.php

I center the map on the POI and click "refresh mark"
Then I pick the type of POI, enter a description and click submit:

I get this error:

Quote:

IMPORTANT NOTICE: You can not edit this location. It may be already changed. Try to refresh the POI list. Go back.

I have looked at the file and no POI already exists for this location.

To add to or edit a data base:
Open a POI file (ex. cameras).

If there is a particular entry you want to edit, click Edit beside it (or delete, etc).

Click Add to enter a new POI (doesn't need to be next to any of the ones in particular on the list). Enter a description and try to keep the format of the other users.
