What is IMI file?
IMI files are a type of file created on Magellan GPS devices. This file contains the map data that is necessary to use on the device. The IMI file extension is almost always found at the end of a file name and can be found using a search engine or by browsing through other files on your computer. The content in these files is usually displayed in green, which is different from other colors like red, yellow, and blue.
