Databases

The app supports speed camera databases in the IGO8 (preferred), Tomtom OV2, Garmin CSV, GPX, and KML format. Only IGO8 allows directional warnings. Typically a database is a single text (IGO8, CSV, GPX, KML) or binary (OV2) file. It may be compressed into zip, unzip it before loading into the app.

The content of IGO8 files typically looks like this:

X,Y,TYPE,SPEED,DIRTYPE,DIRECTION
1.5594400,42.5219400,1,60,1,236
1.4821700,42.4466700,1,60,0,0
...

or this:

ID,X,Y,TYPE,SPEED,DIRTYPE,DIRECTION
1,1.5224200,42.5291400,2,,0,0
2,1.5331100,42.5107500,1,60,67,1
...

The content of Garmin CSV files typically looks like this:

7.80239,44.97043,101004 Autobox Fisso dir Chieri@50
7.81524,44.68827,150624 Autovelox Fisso@50
...

The app considers a number after '@' as a speed limit. This also applies to OV2, GPX and KML files. The third item in the line (description after longitude and latitude) can be taken into quotation marks:

7.80239,44.97043,"101004 Autobox Fisso dir Chieri@50"
...

GPX and KML are XML-files. Tomtom OV2 is a binary format.
