SINGAPORE: The commonly used online map website www.streetdirectory.com, run by Virtual Map, has been down for the past few days.
This development came about just after Virtual Map lost its appeal against the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) over a long-standing copyright feud over online maps last week.
A spokesman for Virtual Map told Channel NewsAsia that shareholders will be meeting in a few days to decide on the long-term direction of www.streetdirectory.com.
Channel NewsAsia understands that one of the options may include removing Singapore maps from its website, which currently provides maps of Malaysia and Indonesia as well.
But for now, Virtual Map hopes to bring the site back up shortly, with new maps that the company has been working on.
The company also plans to submit an application to the Court of Appeal in a final attempt to reverse the latest court decision. - CNA/ac
