Incheon Free Economic Zone 3D Spatial Information Foreign Language Service from the 4th

English, Chinese, and Japanese Services Launched
Used by Over 270,000 People in 76 Countries Worldwide

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Hyesook] The Incheon Free Economic Zone 3D Spatial Information Service (http://3dgis.ifez.go.kr) has been available in three foreign languages?English, Chinese, and Japanese?since the 4th.

The Incheon Free Economic Zone Authority began developing foreign language services last September in response to the increasing number of foreign visitors from English-speaking countries as well as Chinese and Japanese-speaking users. They recently completed development by customizing menus for users and improving management functions for foreign language services.

This service provides 3D, 2D, and aerial VR (virtual reality) data covering the past 12 years and current information for Songdo, Yeongjong, and Cheongna International Cities. It allows users to access various information such as development plans, buildings subject to the Landscape and Architecture Committee, and land for sale in a three-dimensional format.

Users can obtain basic data anytime and anywhere worldwide using computers, tablets, or mobile devices without installing any additional programs, and can also utilize various content such as 3D simulations.

As of the end of October this year, the cumulative number of service users reached over 270,000 from 76 countries worldwide, more than four times the number in 2017 (about 63,000) when the service first launched. Compared to 2018 (52 countries, about 115,000 users), the number of users has steadily increased by more than 160,000.

In this regard, the Incheon Free Economic Zone Authority operates 3D stereoscopic model simulation reviews for the Architecture and Landscape Committee, the first of its kind nationwide, and allows one-click access to 3D stereoscopic model data.

Additionally, since 2017, it has been providing 3D model data for 598 cases approved by the Architecture and Landscape Committee up to last year, and 3D stereoscopic models for committee reviews conducted this year are made publicly available the day after the committee meeting.

The Incheon Free Economic Zone 3D Spatial Information Service was widely recognized for its excellence and usability, receiving the Prime Minister’s Commendation at the '2019 Smart Land Expo' hosted by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport last year for its contribution to the development of national spatial information.
