Hi,
1) Is Apple using OSM data for Japan? -> Apple is using little bit of OSM data in Japan. Mainly they are using iPC data and original data by tracing. That is hybrid data set. ex. leisure=park https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=505426332819676&set=a.313949581967353.87430.100000569420263&type=1 2) If they are, I can't believe this is a correct statement. I thinks so, Mr. Yamagishi should explain about iPC data and apple's original data. We have strong relationship to Mapion. I have already started to talk with members of Mapion.
