[Loadstone] Point type/class

[M. Jeukendrup]

Hi,
Is it an idea to make listprogram in such a way that selcting the item in
the list can be done by typing tekst. 
(Like you can doe in a contactpersonslist from your mobiel phone) 
The list of Point Type Classification is getting large.
If there is an possibility to preselect an item by typing text, it takes
less time to select  the classification.

Best Regards,
Michael

Hi all,

Next to the work on the 3rd software we are also thinking about a way to 
classify points. This would improve the use of the Point Share Exchange and 
facilitate downloading points of a special class. What we need is a list of 
words that describe a point and/or words that serve as a description of a 
category. Below you find a numnber of words that come to mind. The idea is 
to expand this list as much as possible and then start grouping them in 
something compact enough for use on the phone as well. We'd like to hear 
your classifications, because this first list will be incomplete for sure. 
Both point descriptions as suggestions for categories are welcome!

Here's the list so far:

Address
airport
ATM/bank
attraction
auto/cycle repair
Bars/Cafe
Bridge
Bus stop
campground
cemetery
checkpoint/safety zone
Church
Cinema
Emergency exit
government building
Hike
hospital/EMS
Hotel
library
Monument
Museum
Other
park
Parking lot
Petrol station
Police station
Private
Railwaycrossing
Railway station
rest area
restaurant
school/college
Shopping mall
Stadium
store
structure
Supermarket
Theatre
Town/village
Waypoint
wifi hot spot
winery
Zebra

Let's hear them!

Rob
