Points of Interest (POI)
The Magellan Maestro has preloaded POIs that can be used as a destination for a route. Selecting a
restaurant or finding a petrol station nearby is as simple as tapping the screen!.
Categories and Subcategories
POIs are sorted into unique categories, with some of them being further sorted into subcategories.
Restaurants have, for example, 54 subcategories that provide a way to search for restaurants serving
