In Switzerland, it's forbidden to have speedcamfiles on your GPS. When found, you will get a severe financial penalty and your GPS will be confiscated.
So 'official' speedcamfiles (like POIWarner) for Switzerland do not exist.

There used to be a DACH file (Deutschland=Germany, Austria, CH=Switzerland). but I have not seen an update for months.

I am searching for speed cameras in Switzerland too. I found some older version of speed limit that has them. Anyone has other solution?

what format are the files you have in ?

I currently have some for CH (likewise not recent) but they are in...
*.csv
*.kml
*.upd
*.ov2
*.asc
*.ogg

im runing Navigon on my Windows Phone, and need to convert the above to *.nsf & *.pom, so they show up as POI, *just renaming them didnt work* so far ive not figured out how to do this.

I found them on ov2 and I converted them into kml for my nokia maps, they show on the map but there is no audible sound there is no option on my phone for this. But, I installed the speelimit with SLDB and I have the audio sound when approaching and it seems that it is the same DB. The cameras are very accurate.

May I ask you how you did it ? e.g How you got the Audible alert on (Nokia) Maps when aproaching ?

PS. BTW, I do appreciate if anyone shares actual CH radar file with all type of camera.
TNX!

Hi Alex,

I installed SpeedLimit and used the SLDB database that is the most current one for CH. With the setup you get audible message for each camera around. I have tested it extensively and I can tell you that most of the camera are there, if not all.

Let me know if I can help more.
