Point of Interest

A POINT OF INTEREST (POI) is a type of PLACE to or through which passengers may wish to navigate as part of their journey and which is modelled in detail by journey planners.

POINTs OF INTEREST are required by the EC Priority action A of the ITS Directive. It is not expected that POIs will be provided in NeTEx datasets; they will in most cases be defined in external databases (INSPIRE, OSM, SPOI, or commercial datasets) and be referenced by SITE CONNECTIONs.
