Implementation

Finance API: Users looking for lost items pay a fee through the Kakao/Toss API within the app, and users who find the lost items receive a reward via the same API.
Map API: The mashup server retrieves address (location) data through the Road Name Address API and provides users with the location of their lost items via the map API.
Lost Item API: Before users register a lost item on the web app, the API checks if their item matches any pre-registered lost items.

WHY FINDER?

There are few alternatives for reporting lost items besides going to the police, and it's rare for found items to be returned to their owners.
Existing lost item data is difficult to access, and the differing locations of loss and discovery make retrieving items challenging.
We aim to develop a comprehensive lost item retrieval service to address issues of insufficient rewards and the lack of time to search for lost items.
