This dataset was created by a joint collaborative project involving the technical and managerial GIS staff from the ten Metropolitan Counties of the Twin Cities in Minnesota (Anoka, Carver, Chisago, Dakota, Hennepin, Isanti, Ramsey, Scott, Sherburne and Washington), the Metropolitan Emergency Services Board (MESB), MetroGIS and the Metropolitan Council. Core needs this dataset are intended to satisfy include:

- Vehicular routing;
- Address geocoding;
- Next Generation 911 call routing and location validation;
- Emergency services dispatching;
- Linear referencing uses;
- Cartographic representation of road features;

This dataset is a compilation of address point data from metro area address authorities, which are predominantly cities. The dataset is intended to contain a point location and the official address (as defined by the address authority) for all occupiable units and any other official addresses within the jurisdictional boundary of each address authority. A number of other attributes are available in the dataset, but may not be populated by some address authorities.

Metro area counties are playing a coordinative role to work with cities to create, maintain and aggregate address points. Currently this dataset contains points for all Seven Metropolitan Counties as well as participating bordering counties.

Some jurisdictions in this dataset contain parcel points and not complete address points. See Completeness in Section 2 of this metadata for more information.

The data used in this aggregated dataset are compliant with the Address Point Data Standard for Minnesota.
