Yes you can get them from PGPSW, you can download the Euro cameras from the same place you download the UK ones

You are most welcome, I can vouch for the ones in southern Poland Wink

but on my travels around Europe in general they are as good as the UK ones.

I have found the euro ones to be fairly good, but as members are doing the sighting and verifying sites then more out the way places or routes will suffer. Some regions are installing cameras at a rate of knots, other countries not so much, so some variables in cover is bound to happen. As its a UK site with the most members living in the UK, then you would expect the database to be solid.

I vary my routes as much as possible in Poland and catch new sites or update, but I think its just me and a donated database doing the southern bit, I found the Euro database pretty good within Germany, Holland and Scandinavia, but I have my eyes open as well, its always changing out there.

That's encouraging - I hadn't realised how reasonably accurate and comprehensive the Euro cams were. Congrats to the spotters/verifiers - I'll definitely be loading them for the summer (I had been thinking I'd have to fork out for one of the continental commercial offerings).

I'll try and do my bit on the way down to Garda!

Its part of the same package, I had it in the Uk then moved to Poland and let the sub go, but after a while saw some PL cameras so subbed again and soon got my first camera in 30mins Very Happy

I would say on the route you would take the database will be pretty good, if you were to go somewhere a little less normal, then cover will not be as good.

There's also a French government (I think) site, which shows the location of all fixed French Gatsos. A look on there as you plan your route can alert you to possible problems on your journey. I'm pretty sure that all these are on the PGPSW database by now though.
The site is at

Enjoy your trip Very Happy

Just to add that (I think) there is only one voice which is Kate (oggs) for eurocams and you will need to copy & rename some of the pmobile oggs to complete the set.

There are also some ""holes" in the ogg set, there are more speed camera definitions than "oggs"

You may need to reduce the length of name of the files because when viewing the POIs in the TT the names all look the same and are cut off.

I use http://www.bulkrenameutility.co.uk , great little utility
