Is there TTN5 POI database for LPG outlets in the UK and even across Europe? (sorry if this should have gone into a more relevant board)

If you can bear to wait a little longer I'm in the middle of compiling a LPG POI for GB at the moment. _________________ Richard

Sounds good - what's the best way of finding out once you're ready?
Also, do you know of any continental databases?
Thanks,

Check my webpage occasionally, should be finished by the end of January.
For abroad you could have a look at this - http://www.boostlpg.co.uk/driver_industry/europe_stations.htm _________________ Richard

I may be missing something but this facility is listed in POIEdit - LPG Forcourt and LPG Non Forcourt.
Have personally found it reasonably reliable so far in the UK and list even gives the telephone numbers of these POI's. "Navigate to" these as POI's lists distances to nearest 10 or so. |

The LPGas POI is now ready for downloading. It lists Forecourt and Non-Forecourt in same file. The Forecourt facility is denoted by the <F> after the Name.
It also includes the Closing Times, where that information is available, and the phone numbers. _________________ Richard
