THIS IS A ONE-TIME PURCHASE! It is not a subscription. There are no recurring costs. Approximately once per month, this extension will be updated in the Android Market to the latest version of the data. Historically, approximately 100 locations are changed in each update. You get all future updates included in your one-time purchase!

GPS POI US, since 2006, has developed the Traffic Camera dataset for the US & Canada markets. Built entirely in-house through proven research methods, you can expect a higher level of accuracy and quality from the GPS POI US dataset. GPS POI US data can be found in hardware and software solutions by Whistler and NNG, and has been sold directly to customers of Garmin, TomTom and Navigon GPS devices since 2006. GPS POI US welcomes feedback on the dataset and will fully research any user feedback on the dataset prior to the next update.

The dataset includes locations of all known speed cameras, red light cameras, illegal right-turn cameras, mobile speed detection cameras, and school zone cameras. It does not contain highly subjective locations such as "dangerous intersections" or "speed traps" like other datasets that bombard you with continuous alerts because they are in a marketing race to claim the highest number of locations.

In our dataset, all cameras are treated as "Traffic Cameras." We do not confuse or distract you with multiple kinds of alerts that require your attention to the screen while driving. You will receive a single alert type for all Traffic Cameras with the simple message to you to "Obey all traffic laws at this location." When you hear our alert, there is no need to focus your attention on your phone's screen. Focus your attention on the road and strictly obey all traffic laws.

There is no risk of not receiving our alerts due to a City moving a camera to another lane or changing a speed detection threshold because all locations operate using a simple radius alert that you set in Radardroid, to maximize the alerts provided to you.

Unique to our dataset is that complex or large intersections may contain 2 location definitions. This is done in order to maximize the early alert warning without having to set an extra long alert distance, which could then alert you too early on slow speed roads.
