Abstract: A method of providing a chat service in a map-based virtual space includes receiving a place selection signal based on map information and/or a motion detection signal from user terminals, determining location information and FoV information of the corresponding account in the virtual space, determining image information of a perspective view and one or more other accounts to be displayed on the corresponding user terminal, receiving a chat request from a first user terminal, receiving a result regarding whether to accept a chat in response to the chat request from a second user terminal, determining whether an account of the first user terminal and the other account of the second user terminal on the street view satisfy a preset condition, and providing the chat service between the first user terminal and the second user terminal based on whether the chat is accepted and whether the preset condition is satisfied.
