PoI Database

This page provides details of the PoI database that supports the Vanguard mapping projects on this website.

Current Status

Total entries: 22154 PoIs (including 9049 resources, 3031 NPCs, 4512 mobs and 3681 plots).

Updates are dependent on the volume of new data submitted by players via the parser. If you would like to see more data available in the InfoMap UI mod and the web-based PoI Maps, then start logging it!

Data Details

The resource node data is automatically averaged, providing a high degree of accuracy. Other PoIs are dealt with manually (for now).

For metal, stone and wood resources each map marker is one node. For plant resources each map marker is the centre of a group of nodes. Plant nodes occur close together in groups, and individual map markers would cause unnecessary cluttering of the maps.

All resource nodes are labelled with their common names. Rare and ultra rare nodes may spawn at any location with the equivalent common name.

PoIs with identical coordinates are merged into a single map marker.
