Openchargemap POI data files
These below gpx files can be used to find electric vehicle chargers around your location or on your route in your navigation system.
In order to use them you must upload them in your navigation device, see your related manual. For Garmin you can use the "POI loader" application.
To view the data outside of your navigation device, you can use as example for Windows the "PoiViewer10" app from Bjorn Holmstedt‬ in the MS Store,
the "Avenue GPX Viewer" app from Vincent Neo for MacOS, for iOs the "GPX viewer" app from Jonathan Gander and for Android the "GPX viewer" app from Vectura Games.
The description field format (name field is connector, name and location) of the files is as follows:
Address location - Connector[AC T2|AC Teth.|CCS|Chademo|Tesla|Schuko, etc], kW=[num], [num]x| (can be multiple) | - Stations: [num] - Usage [Public]- Comments
- URL link like: https://openchargemap.org/site/poi/details/[OCM number]
For example:
