GPX waypoint "storedlocation.slc" generator

If you want to manually add new charging stations or other waypoints to the navigation system of the Nissan Leaf it can become quite a job. You do have the possibility to put a "storedlocation.slc" on a SD card and import that file into the navigation system. But therefor you first need to generate a storedlocation.slc. You will need two elements for that. First a GPX waypoint file and then the Python script gpx2slc from Goingelectric:  https://www.goingelectric.de/forum/nissan-leaf-infotainment/pois-zum-leaf-navi-hinzufuegen-t3465-90.html#p238448

Based on the gpx2slc script I created this online storedlocation.slc generator:

Waypoint data
Please fill out/replace all fields (numbers in English annotation with dot, not comma).
 
Latitude Longitude Name (without special chars)
(maximum 200 entries)  
     

Already entered data ...
Show map

  Latitude Longitude Name
the storedlocation.slc file
 
Simply enter the waypoints and generate the storedlocation.slc file.
 
Import
 
First export the addressbook from the Leaf to a SD card. After that you should copy the folder userdata from the SD card to your PC as a backup. Then copy (overwrite) the downloaded storedlocation.slc file to the SD-card in just that folder called userdata. Important: All other files should remain there, otherwise the import procedure will fail. Now you can import the addressbook into the Leaf. Proceed as explained in Nissan's navigation manual (3-71):
 

(use a USB stick on 2016/17 models, not a SD card)

Remarks
 
I had to edit the poi_collection.py file in line 98 and 99 (bug?):
  
lon = float(entry['lon'])
lat = float(entry['lat'])

As backup here the original, unchanged gpx2slc.zip from the Goingelectric forum.
