Is there a way of converting PocketGPSWorld download files to vCard-Format so that I can download them to the Amnundsen system in my Skoda Yeti?

Do you have an example file that works? I've never know vCard being used for POIs.

I have managed to upload a destination as a .vcf file via Skoda's MYDESTINATIONS website but haven't managed to upload a POI file.

I can see how a single contact with a destination lat/long would work but a camera database with thousands of them would be an issue.

Is there any other methods in the manual

I find the manual quite confusing as it covers Columbus, Amundsen and Bolero systems across the Skoda range. This makes it quite difficult to work out the precise methods for any particular combination particularly when there are different versions of the systems in different cars. The online guides are also equally confusing.
Maybe I should attempt to get some answers from the Skoda main dealer.

Or even the BriSkoda owner forum.

If you did load them all in as vcard you'd probably finish up with a huge db of poi with strange names that you could navigate to, but I doubt it would be much use as a speed camera db.
