    I did not receive a reply.  Does anyone have a detailed map of Seoul Korea

    The message below was forwarded to me from the UCI East Asian Librarian.  The attachments do not meet the needs of the person.  Please notice the need for a map that can be zoomed in on.  I  think this requires a paper map, but if you have any other recommendations let me know.    Do you any of you have a map that can be used for this project?

hi ying,

i'm a film/video artist doing a video that requires a close-up shot of
a streetmap of seoul to evoke the feeling of "disorientation."
ideally something that conveys a "bird's eye view" of a neighborhood
or the city of seoul such as one can find for other cities.

to give you a sense, the attached maps are close to what i'm looking
for however they are either too small/low resolution to provide
adequate detail at the street/neighborhood level (e.g. "old map seoul"
jpg), or are too cluttered with english text (e.g. "asianinfo" jpg.)

i've heard there's some sort of land registry book in korean that
lists every building/block in seoul -  sort of an uber-thomas guide --
do you know of this and where i might find it?

thanks
maya





can you think of anything at
