Notice of changes (added by K-VET JAPAN):
The Foursquare OS Places data included in this service was obtained via the Overture Maps Foundation Places dataset
(release 2026-10-21.0), where it was already transformed to the Overture schema. K-VET JAPAN additionally modified it:
limited to veterinary categories in Japan; removed duplicate and positionally inconsistent records; reformatted phone
numbers; and assigned prefecture / municipality names derived from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and
Tourism (Japan) National Land Numerical Information.
