SEOUL, Nov 13 (Reuters) – South Korea’s government said on ​Friday that ‌Google has removed latitude and longitude coordinates for South Korean ‌territory ​from Google ⁠Maps and ⁠Google Earth, one of the security conditions attached to a ​permit granted in February ⁠to export ⁠high-resolution map data.

Google ​Street View imagery ​inside and around all ‌military and security facilities on South Korean territory ⁠will also be deleted, said an inter-agency press ⁠release.

The ‌government said ⁠it planned to ​suspend ‌or revoke ​the permit ⁠if serious breaches of the conditions occurred.
