Hi rakh1

I deleted the 0079 and 0080 files and replaced them with the files I converted. I also replaced the ENG.LSC file with one I got from mini2 in the speed camera on sat nav sticky.

If you want more help the send me a PM.

Grant.

Chris,
burned the dvd no problem, is there something you have to do to display the speed camera icons? I can get hotels etc. but not the speed cameras.

Cheers
Steve

Steve,

You should find them at Information > Travel Information > Info on Location > Car > Speed Cameras.
However, Mini owners are having issues (see above). However, if you have a 3 series or an X5, you should be OK.

Chris

Question How to add this data?

Chris,
Sorry if this is extremely clear to long term X5'ers, but I did a quick search and didn't see any links about how to add data.

If you know where there is a link, can you point me to it? I live in the Phoenix, Arizona area where the first highway photo radar has been launched by an Aussie firm. Until we ban mobile phone usage, I am doing everything in my power to make the photo radar cams useless. I want to add this info to the USA data.

Thank you for your efforts and assistance!

I'm not totally sure what you're asking here. Is it how to add speed camera location coordinates to the sat nav DVD so they can be viewed on the nav screen?

Yes. I want to highlight these in America as I am fighting to either eliminate them, or ban mobile phone use. If we don't eliminate mobile phone use, then I want to legalise drunken driving.

F-cking Blonde Barbies in their SUVs here are like terrorists with strapped on bombs. My attack plan is to continue driving 150+MPH every day to scare them out of their silicone infested panties and make them pay attention to their driving. I've driven 8 months without a ticket - I have a secret weapon and I will continue to use it to terrorize idiots on mobile phones until we book them in jail for at least 30 days with a $10,000 fine.

Hi Guilden,

I don't quite see the correlation between speed cameras and mobile phone use??
Anyway, to set up a NA 2006-2 disc up with speed camera locations, you can use the instructions I've already posted here.. The only difference is you would need the NA GPS co-ordinates for the locations in this format:

;* Created by POIConverter version 3.15 on 10/07/2006
;* Longitude, Latitude, "Name" [, "Description"]
-2.17788, 50.68304, "GATSO:1@40"
-2.09934, 50.70723, "GATSO:2@30"
-2.08936, 53.50270, "GATSO:3@20"
-0.11078, 52.02661, "GATSO:8@70"
-0.39579, 51.52150, "GATSO:10@50"
-2.48386, 52.69615, "GATSO:12@30"
-2.07762, 53.51140, "GATSO:13@30"
-2.74783, 53.32440, "GATSO:14@60"

There is a website in the UK where we can download this data for £2, but we are so infested with cameras it's a worthwhile enterprise. Not sure how you'll get this info yourself. I just had a quick scan on Google and it seems there are only about 1000 cameras in the whole of NA. There must be that amount in London alone here!!
For our NA cousins, I attach a map of Southern England showing the amount of cameras.
