How to find a simbol

0

Hi! Im wondering since a long time how to find for examle, simbols of all view points, or all picnic spots, but in a bigger area. When looking for a path been really close one can start seen view points, fire spots... monuments... or whatever. But only in a small area. What I want is to search a simbol in a big square km area... or in a part of a country... is possible? :-) thank you!

Not sure if you want to do that within a certain app. If not...

There are web sites like POI Map where you can do that. Also many smartphone apps like maps.me, Locus or OSMAnd support POI search and visualization.

Those maps/apps are based on OpenStreetMap (Locus depending on the used map layer).
