camera database

[davethepitch]

Could someone please explain what i do to send new camera info to pocketgps so they can add it to their database.

By this i mean i used the quick add cam icon which i was given in my new menu as i found a camera that was not on the database.

Many thanks Dave aka Juan Dumass

I think they'll accept new camera data in several formats (such as latitude and longitude (it's not TomTom specific), but as you're using Quickam, the simplest way is to collect any new cameras into the "mycams" POI category that Quicksam saves to.
Then, one a month (I do it around the 20th), send the mycams.ov2 file from your maps folder off to Cameras@PocketGPSWorld.com as an email attachment, with any notes or comments in the body of the email.

That's what I've been doing (without the benefits of Quickam) for a few months now, and not had any complaints yet! (Plus it gives you a warm feeling all over when the next update comes out with all your additions :D )

Oh yeah, once you've checked they are on the new download, you should empty your mycams POI file (by "Delete POI" in the preferences) and start afresh for the next month.
