Examples of sites using phpoi

Linköping Judo is using phpoi to provide GPS coordinates to judo and jiujitsu clubs in sweden. They also provide a list with map links to the judo and jiujitsu clubs.

Olofpark is using phpoi to display its coordinates and address together with a map link. However, using phpoi to only display a single point of interest could be considered overkill.
