Gokseong-gun, How Many Public Masks Are Left and Where at a Glance

Thumbs Up for Easy Real-Time Mask Quantity Tracking Linked with Public Mask System

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Kim Chunsu] A local government in Jeonnam is attracting attention by creating a system that allows residents to see the real-time status of public mask sales at a glance.

Gokseong-gun, Jeonnam, announced on the 27th that it has established a system where any resident can easily and conveniently check the real-time sales status of public masks.

The existing public mask sales status system was centered around a map, making it difficult for elderly people to find the information. Even when they managed to find it, masks were often already sold out.

Accordingly, Gokseong-gun improved the system by visualizing the stock status along with the sales location address and phone number as Good (green), Moderate (yellow), and Low (red). In particular, the stock status is updated almost in real time within 5 to 10 minutes to prevent wasted trips due to sold-out masks.

To access the system, click the ‘Mask Status’ button on the popup window that appears on the Gokseong-gun Office website (http://www.gokseong.go.kr).

A county official said, “We hope this will reduce the time and effort spent purchasing public masks during this busy period.”
