Look at the Location and Views modules. This may take care of most, if not all,
your issues.

Subject: [support] Building website with POI (Points of Interests)
Hi,
I'm building a website about Route 66, for my own needs. Probably will
not go public.
I made page (as in content type) for each State (8) Route 66 going
through. These pages will probably not have any content. More for Menu
purpose only.
Similar, I plan to make a page (content type) for each city. Menu links
of these pages are actually sub-primary menu links:
Primary menu:
* Illinois
> Chicago
> Cicero
> Joliet
> ...
* Missouri
> St. Louis
> Springfield
> ...
City pages will probably not have any content either.
Now comes the pain: I have to start building POI (Points Of Interests).
POI has to have Name, Address, City, State, Description. Geo Coordinates
(Longitude & Latitude) - if known. I was thinking to create a content
type for each city and that way "group" POIs, but something's tellig me
it's not good idea.
I know it's possible to create web form (I know there is module for
webform) to enter POI but never used it and I'm not quite sure how can I
group these entries by city?
Also, I have to be able create something like Photo album about each POI
to add any picture I found interesting about this POI (download fro
Internet and upload to my Drupal site) and comment the picture. I need
ability to "update" POI with new information (text) but it could be as
a Comment on POI.
I'm new in Drupal and I need help what directions I have to take? Which
modules I need to use here...
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Afan
