LoPoints are dynamic points of interest displayed on LoMaps. Each point contains additional information - e.g. opening hours, WWW, phone number etc. LoPoints can be navigated to, guided to similarly as Locus user points.

The database is based on OpenStreetMap data and is an integral part of LoMaps. It can be displayed on the maps but also browsed and searched.

• topbar
  • - when particular points are selected, the button changes and displays a number of them on the map. Tapping this removes highlighting of selected points on the map.

LoPoints database consists of several categories, e.g. Accommodation, Financial&Post services, Culture&Tourism etc. Each category is sub-divided into subcategories and also contains a special parameter “around” that allows browsing points around the current location of the user.

Points in a selected category can be highlighted on map by tapping in topbar (showing also number of points in the selected category):

When you tap a particular point its detail info screen opens. All points in categories are always sorted by distance from the map screen cursor (or from the user's location if the device is GPS fixed and the map centered).

It is not possible to export LoPoints. Only a highlighted display is allowed.

Full-text search of names and keywords. E.g. keyword “pub” returns all points with “pub” in their name, description or amenity.

LoPoints can be deactivated - hidden on the map. Tap in the topbar and uncheck Display on map.
