Yes, after the funding stop, 38 North has moved to the Henry L. Stinson Center. https://www.38north.org/2018/05/editor051718/ 2018-06-05 4:04 GMT+09:00 Max : > on the 38north website it says: > "38 North is a project of The Henry L.

On the website http://38northdigitalatlas.org/ they write: "This project is in a beta development phase. The ArcGIS platform allows users to search the data by name (in English and Korean) for cities, villages, factories, schools, government offices, restaurants, shops, markets, etc. However, because this data is generally derived from North Korean sources, Korean and English spellings can differ from South Korean protocol. Although there is already a significant amount of data available in this portal, we have much more still to be processed. Over time, periodic updates will be made to the atlas of both location data and satellite imagery layers. 38 North would like to thank the programmers at i-cubed, and our partners at ScapeWare3d and Airbus Space and Defense for their help in designing and building this portal. 38 North is also grateful for generous support from the Carnegie Corporation of New York and the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation for developing this important digital resource.

So basically they rip off DPRK official information to put it under their copyright. I bought a printed map in DPRK, will scan and provide it somwere.

It's very sad. I have seen USKI at Johns Hopkins recently in Korean newspapers; USKI has been mostly funded by the ROK government since its beginning. (Only recently the funding stopped.) So practically that 38north's map data has been built using ROK taxpayers' money. ___ Talk-ko mailing list Talk-ko@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ko
