GTA V ships more than 900 blip icons and a palette of numbered colours. You only ever need a few dozen of them, but finding the right number when you are filling in a config is tedious. This page lists the sprites that roleplay and freeroam servers actually use, with the game’s official radar name for each, and the full colour list.
Short answer: Pass the sprite number to SetBlipSprite and the colour number to SetBlipColour. Common sprites: 60 police station, 61 hospital, 357 garage, 73 clothes store, 110 gun shop, 108 the dollar sign used for banks, 71 barber, 72 mod shop, 52 convenience stores, 361 fuel. Colours: 0 white, 1 red, 2 green, 3 blue, 5 yellow, 17 orange, 27 purple.
Colours are set with SetBlipColour(blip, id). These are the game’s colours as documented by Cfx; some IDs share a colour. IDs above 40 exist but most are special-purpose (for example 56 brown, 75 red, 76 deep red).
The complete catalogue — 965 sprites with a picture of each — is in the Cfx documentation under game references → blips. Search it by what the icon should look like, note the number, and pass it to SetBlipSprite. How to create and name the blip is in the blips guide.
Questions
What is the blip sprite for a police station?

Why does my blip sprite show as an empty square?
The sprite belongs to a DLC newer than the server’s enforced game build, or the ID is wrong. Raise the game build or choose another sprite.
