Question Heathrow Airport car park navigation

OK, here is an odd question for you.

Is there any way of getting TTN3 on PPC to navigate to the various carparks at Heathrow Airport.. or indeed any other UK airports? When you search for an airport, it literally just says "London Heathrow Airport" yet not the specific areas such as terminals or carparks. You can search for the Heathrow Airport Terminal 123 and 4 stations, but what I want to do is basically search for Heathrow, Terminal 1, Short Stay Car Park.

Can this be done? Have seen that there are lots of recomendations to get the postcode finder from digitools.co.uk/postcode.php which will help for many other cases, but I dont think that the airport car parks have postcodes. Are there any third party programs that can help me?

cheers in advance

Welcome to our forums.
In my opinion this cant be done (at least by ourselves) as it would require ammending of the map data for it to work. Thats not to say that it wont be possible or an included feature in the future.

Thanks for the reply charlie.

I have a feeling that the map has the roads to the carparks already, a bit like when you stop at a motorway services. I was just wondering if anywone had maybe given these locations some kind of identity for TT to navigate to.

Having thought about it a bit more, I almost now wondering if someone may have made the specific locations into POIs. If that is the case, can you navigate directly to a specific POI?

Thanks for the reply stevie, I will see if i can locate it somhow. Would be great if there was a bit of third party software to nail this one. One a side note to the option you gave me stevie, is there anyway of browsing the maps on a PC? :-/
