Can anyone who lives in Minnesota recommend some POI files that will be helpful for finding things that someone who knows nothing about Minnesota will find helpful.

In particular, the Twin Cities Metro Area.

Thanks.

I don’t know if you have

I don’t know if you have red light and speed cameras in the Minnesota. If you do, then they are your first choice. You also download things like McDonalds or Exxon or your favorite fast food place to help learn how to load POIs and get the alerts properly set. You might even use them some day. POIs for obscure locations can follow, because you also need those McDonalds, etc. to be sure you have the correct procedure for loading the seldom seen locations.
