TMAP API
TMAP Mobilitys navigation, traffic and ETA APIs — the de facto Korean driving-navigation SDK.

- Real-time traffic built on SK Telecom data
- ETA accuracy best-in-class in Korea
- APIs cover routing, traffic, and geocoding
Cons

- Local business account typically required

Best for: Apps shipping driving features to Korean drivers
