I have no idea how they did it, some said China somehow manipulated the map data companies like google had, but when I was in China a few years ago, using on your phone or imported GPS, google maps would always show your actual location (on a map) hundreds of metres away from where you actually were.

The Chinese GPS's worked perfectly (if you could read them )
