Speed Cameras on Business Nav

I'm getting no luck on my normal 5 series forums and I have been told that this forum is where the expertise lies for BMW Nav systems generally.

I wondered whether anyone had managed to put new POIs and Speed Cameras on the BMW Business Nav of the type which appears on new E60 and E61s and I believe on some other models.

I have seen the descriptions on how to do this on the Professional systems, but never seen it described on the Business Nav.

Yes the Business System now has a proper detailed map, but it is different from the professional map, in that it only displays in 2D, you can't get a perspective view. The file structure on the DVD is also totally different from Professional.

If you are referring to the new map format that BMW started using in some vehicles last year, then there's no known way to do this. However if your vehicle is still using the older Siemens/VDO map format, then http://pimp-my-nav.com will be able to help.
