[OSM-talk] OSM attributed by Korean firm "Naver".

[Andrew Errington]

Hello everyone,

I noticed recently that an OSM attribution has appeared at the bottom
right on Korea's Naver mapping service.  Naver is a Korean internet
portal which is very popular here (er, in Korea).

I don't know exactly what Naver is using OSM for, since I always
assumed they acquired and maintained their own data (including their
own streetview images).

See the attribution for yourselves at:
http://map.naver.com/

I don't know what you'll see, as Naver uses IP geolocation to estimate
your starting position.  Maybe outside Korea you'll be presented with
Seoul.

Another popular web portal is Daum.  They have a map service
(including streetview) but they don't acknowledge OSM, so they
probably aren't using it:

Interesting?

Best wishes,

Andrew
