[Asia Economy Reporter Park Hyesook] High-resolution aerial imaging has begun to capture the changing landscape of the Incheon Free Economic Zone (IFEZ) amid various development projects.

The Incheon Free Economic Zone Authority announced on the 28th that it will conduct high-resolution aerial imaging of the Songdo, Yeongjong, and Cheongna international cities until the end of next month.

The annual aerial imaging is intended to share the international cities' appearance with citizens and to serve as foundational data for systematic management of terrain and landmarks, as well as administrative tasks.

The entire IFEZ area, including Songdo (53.45㎢), Yeongjong (52.48㎢), and Cheongna (17.81㎢), will be divided into a total of 82 courses and 3,820 points, and photographed using light aircraft.

Notably, this aerial imaging employs the latest 'aerial LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging: a device that emits laser pulses and measures distances by receiving the light reflected from surrounding objects),' drawing attention.

The Incheon Free Economic Zone Authority plans to utilize the captured high-resolution aerial photographs for various development plans, permits and approvals, illegal building crackdowns, and development activity permit management.

Additionally, the high-resolution aerial photographs will be made available to citizens through the '3D Spatial Information Service (http://3dgis.ifez.go.kr),' which allows three-dimensional viewing of every corner of the Incheon Free Economic Zone to obtain diverse information.

The 3D Spatial Information Service provides various spatial information, including high-resolution aerial photographs, 3D buildings for landscape and architectural review, district unit plans, and major underground facilities.
