Here = Nokia Maps, they've been renaming a few things on Windows Phone 8 to Here, Nokia Drive+ is now Here Drive+

 

The copyright in the bottom corner also gives it away.

 

Doesn't look too bad though, the 3D in the browser is pretty sweet. The Sat pics are out of date though, nearly the whole of wales has really low res sat pics, even ms bing has better pics (since MS and Nokia share mapping data it seems odd), just as proof:

 

Here Maps: http://her.is/TSU7A

Bing Maps: http://binged.it/12n19FY

Google Maps: http://goo.gl/maps/rhla0

 

Bing has the most up-to-date sat imagery, as we got solar panels last summer, and I didn't realise we were the only one the street with them, wow.

 

Infact, Here is using MS's streetside for the street level view, just with different cursor animations
