Gunwi-gun used to be located in Gyungsangbuk-do province, but has merged with Daegu City. This changes major administrative boundaries in Korea.

The changes have been updated on Openstreetmap already. Can this be updated on Project-GC?

Incorrect county level regions in South Korea

Tue, 26 Nov 2019 03:36:21 +0000

There are two "county" level regions in the South Korean maps that are actually neighborhood level and should not be included on a county level map. These two are listed below.

창원시 마산합포구 신포동1가 (Gyeongsang nam do)

창원시 마산합포구 신월동 (Gyeongsang nam do)

These are well below the county level and actually just small neighborhoods within the same city. I'm not sure how these were mislabeled, but they should be removed from the South Korean Maps.

missing region in Incheon, South Korea

Hello, I just now noticed a missing "County Level" region in the "State Level" maps on project gc.

It is a small region, so I hadn't noticed it before.

When I searched using the "Search Counties" tool at the country level, I noticed a red spot where I didn't expect. When I zoomed in I could select Dong-gu on the country level county map.

However, when I use the "Search Counties" tool filtering at the state level, the county disappears and is not selectable. Dong-gu is also not present in the maps tab in my profile stats.

This is a legitimate "County Level" region in Incheon, Korea, but seems to be missing most places.
