Safety Camera Data Base Installation in TomTom?
Hi,
Can anyone advise if I am correct in thinking that if you have more than one map loaded on your device for example:
1) Central & Western Europe
2) Eastern Europe
Then you need to install the 'SCDB' files into both Map Folders?

Attached are a couple of bits of info/data showing which speedcams should go in different maps although this was originally for the TT speedcams it should, generally apply to most other speedcam databases too

Re: Safety Camera Data Base Installation in TomTom?
Couple of questions on the following files please.
While there are currently 2 offerings on the forum, namely:
‘SCDB_info_World_1-11-12’ & ‘Speedcams’
I am wondering if I need to install both of these or is there an overlap?
While I can see that the 'Speedcams' files cover Europe as each country letter/s is shown on the file, that identification is not provided in the 'SCDB_info_World' file, in fact there is no country identification, but using some other software the entries as the title would suggest (World) cover a number of countries around the World, e.g. Australia, USA & Canada, Brazil and Old Russia
My concern at that point is that while the maps I have loaded covers Europe (West, Central & East) along with Africa & Morocco would the size of the file once unzipped at 1.33Mb prevent it from being installed, especially on TomToms that have limited memory?
Could the Countries that the SCDB cover be identified so that you could remove the ones not required for the Maps that you use, thereby making the application of the program more useful, and that there is no overlap of the data between the two, namely SCDB & Speedcams?
I think that currently there would be around 80% of the SCDB file that would not be used after being installed due to the maps being installed.
Any help, pointers or comments would be appreciated.
Thanks

Just use the SCDB file that covers the country map you are using.
If it is not available then pm me and I will provide it.
Hope this helps.

Hi Carman,
Apologies for taking so long to reply to your answer, which I appreciated.
Having carried out the latest update to the SCDB I also saw the update for 'Mobile Speed Cameras'.
Which made me wonder, as I currently have 4 Maps:
Europe,
Eastern Europe,
Morocco,
USA & Canada.
Should the 'tomtom-mobil' file when unzipped be installed in each of the maps or is it only relevant to Europe?
Would be very grateful if you could clarify please?

The simple answer is yes add the file to each map.
The SCDB files are poi's and need to be added to each map to work correctly.
Hope this helps.

Hi carman,
Thanks for getting back to me.
Your answer was about the SCDB which I understand, while my question was about the additional zipped file called 'Mobile Speed Cameras', and having now unzipped and looked at the details in the 'Mobile Speed Cameras' file it just covers Europe.
Cheers
