This module can serialize and deserialize in ov2 binary format. With special thanks to @mikewatt for providing guidance.
ov2 is a point of interest file, also referred to as poi file. These files store (as the names says) points of interest based on their wgs84 coordinates and label. You can load ov2 files in tomtom devices to navigate to your own points of interest.
For more info on the format read this page.
You can use ov2 and file submodules to handle ov2 format.
The ov2 module can serialize and deserialize ov2 binary format.
The file module can walk through an ov2 file using a callback.
And it can convert csv, write and read ov2 files.
