  • Alert POI will be always visible (instead of city centers)
  • Map query interval can exceed 3 seconds during map scale change
  • It does not matter what road you're driving then approaching alert POI
Is this feature really necessary ?

I need to know it before writing POI converter.
NOMAD, it will be very useful for speed cameras alerting! I think that all points in your list are acceptable! AFAK nobody has POI converter, which is able to modify POI DIRECTLY IN carindb database. Well, if you have time for this work - I say thank you in advance! Just do it! If you need any tests for that - let me know (I have working MK4 "on table" for tests).
