I am trying to use the reverse Geo-coding API of HERE. When I try it for the locations in Japan, I am not able to get the correct results. Does it support addresses in Japan?
Thanks for your help.

HERE doesn't offer street level detailed maps for Japan. Therefore the Geocoder API only returns high level results.

It saids on the official site that:
Note: As stated in the table below, we provide entry map coverage for Japan and South Korea through this API, but we are able to provide full coverage via separate services. For more information or to license access to Japan or South Korea geocoding with full coverage, contact us.
I really don't know why, but it may have to do with confusing addresses that requires different kind of API. I live in Japan and we don't have street names unlike most other countries!

This is the question
Select three random companies, and issue the whois and traceroute (tracert in Windows) commands for each one. Tracert is available from a command prompt. To use whois, you will need to search for an online tool. Then write a short paragraph about each utility outlining the kinds of information available from each. Copy & Paste screen shots for each utility and each company to back up the reported findings.
Assuming i am a noob. I would be glad if someone would outline how to tackle this question for my homework assignment.
This is what I make of this question
Tracert
Read this article for information on trace routes
Company 1 - BBC
Run a tracert on bbc.co.uk
C:\>tracert bbc.co.uk
Using the information from the tracert documentation will help you document your findings. Then follow the same methodology for the next two companies.
Who is
There is a webisite Whois Lookup
Just put in bbc.co.uk or whatever.
The first paragraph here outlines the information you can get from it. Also looking up a domain will show you what information this will provide.
The information on the websites will help with:
Then write a short paragraph about each utility outlining the kinds of information available from each.
You will then need to take screenshots.
The question is very straight forward, add a sprinkling of common sense and you have yourself an answer.

Realm Core Binary License states:
"This product is not being made available to any person located in Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, Syria or the Crimea region, or to any other person that is not eligible to receive the product under U.S. law."
I cannot understand who is the person mentioned. Is it a developer who uses Realm API or a user of an application developed using Realm?
To make my question clear:
1) May a developer located in one of those areas use Realm to develop apps upon its API?
2) May a user located in one of those areas use a program developed with use of Realm?
Thanks for answering!
I can't speak for Realm in this regard but will try to get the question answered definitively.
As public fact, both Apple and Google ban distribution of apps to Crimea. Speaking as an individual, I think these sanctions are sad and a US action aimed at the wrong people.
I found this article interesting on how people are trying to cope with the sanctions.

Here is the thing.
I have a bunch of vehicles GPS data points, which consist of "timestamp, longitude, latitude, fuel consumption and distance" and the data is OSM(open street map) based. I want to match the data points to OSM, divide it by road type, so that I could get road type specific data in groups (e.g, highway group, local roadway group). Then I'll could calculate the fuel efficiency corresponding to different road type.
This is a project I'm currently doing. I'm wondering if R has any packages could handle this type of task?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I have recently commented a similar question here on stackoverflow.
R: How to identify a road type using GPS?
You need a package that wraps an API enabling "reverse geocoding" service. In detail you need a function that extracts extra information other than the the address. See package ggmap as suggested in the other thread for example. Not sure you can extract the detail you need.. Anyway it is worth a try.
Take a look at the package Nominatim (https://github.com/hrbrmstr/nominatim) or geocodeHERE(https://github.com/corynissen/geocodeHERE) as well. And please inform us all about successes or failures :) Good luck

I'm looking for a in house geocoding tool to geocode millions of address. I've tried on TIGER database, but it got only about 60% address rooftop. There are addresses way far away from the actual address. My needs are:
1. fast enough to process those millions of address in days
2. rooftop accuracy - shouldn't be too far away (I'll say less than 100 foot mistake)
3. in house service - so it should be free to our internal staff
4. ideally open source, but it's ok to have a one time cost to set it up
Currently I'm looking at application level infrastructure, and I'm open to dedicate map server or something like that. I just don't have enough information to start researching.
Feel free to throw me any ideas, thoughts, comments. I'd love to hear them!
There are two pieces to this problem.
the geocoder and how well it parses addresses and matches them to the reference data set.
the reference data
For 1, I have extracted the parser standardizer from PAGC into a postgresql stored procedure (which is OpenSource) and then built a couple of geocoders using that as the heart of the engine.
For 2, and the accuracy that you are looking for, you will likely need high quality commercial data like Navteq or parcel data. Tiger is good for the cost to get you near the location but Title 13 requires Census to fuzzy the address ranges to no single address can be matched to a Census form. So as you found out, Tiger will not do the job.
I have written a lot of geocoders and have one that will work with Navteq and should give you results that are close to your requirements. Check out http://imaptools.com/ and contact me if your interested.

Suppose an actor A has the site of an actor B in iFrames. There is no difference in the sites except the url. Urls are totally different. Should the actor A ask a permission of the actor B for using B's site? Is there any law that forbid placing other site on a site in iFrames?
Not a programming question, but at least let me help you with a link to a site. The owner of plagiarismtoday.com have had some of your concerns and, although not a lawyer, have collected quite a bit of information.

Read The Law on Framing and follow the link to the case of Washington Post v. TotalNews
You should also check your country and local state laws, there is no such thing as a standard legal solution because it changes from one place to the other and many countries do not have laws on what you are asking. However, let me tell you, the web seems to be dominated by two frame of mind, or law philosophy:
lex mercatoria: these folks tend to think the web is commerce and commerce laws should apply, which are mostly derived by mores and civil laws
lex retis: these folks say the web is anarchy, no law should govern it
PS: I am a lawyer. Even if this is a bit complicated, I hope you can get an idea.
As far as I can tell, it only becomes a legal problem if the iframe is used to perpetrate fraud, deceptive marketing, or somesuch. Short of that, it's merely annoying. You can always use framebusters/framekillers if it bothers you enough.
