How to read a GPI file

pa990

Hi guys
I've already created a basic POI list by making a .Csv and it works fine with visual and audible alerts.

Now i want to make my own (SpeedEnforcementZone) file, but i want to make it perform like the Garmin Safety Zone Alert file performs
https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=68120&pvID=68830

i was hoping to view a GPI file in CSV fprmat to see how they make it, so that i can use the same format.

My curent CSV file is just 3 columns Long ,Lat, Description, pretty basic

I want to be able to have the same type alerts that come with the Garmin Camera GPI file.

I've looked at GPSBabel but not having much luck.

This guy shows how to do what you want. This is page 1 of 9 on custom POIs

i saw that site before.

i want to make my own Speed Enforcement Zone (sez) poi

The locations of the SEZ's are public knowledge, but i need a list of the start and end gps co-ordinates, and i need to know how to make determine the speed limit of each zone (some zones incorporate multiple speed limits)

Column:
A & B = Long and Lat
C = descp
D =?
E = ?
etc

do i use csv or gpx ?
where do i get a list of the Co-Ordins of the begining and end of each zone and the speed limit for each zone?


is it worth paying for this
