Enhanced Points of Interest (EPOI) Coordinate system: 4326 - "WGS 84" Abstract: The Enhanced Points of Interest (EPOI) file is a national database of over 1 million Canadian business and recreational points of interest. Engineered using CanMap Streetfiles, each EPOI has been accurately geocoded and precisely placed; two criteria that are fundamental to any successful location sensitive service. EPOI are points of interest across Canada containing Standard Industry Codes (SICs) placing them in categories including, but not limited to: Healthcare Facilities, Shopping Centres, Postal Outlets, Golf Courses and Education. Note: In 2012, there was a datum change from NAD83 to WGS84.
