Gyeongnam Province Launches Revolutionary Overhaul of 'Sea Condition Information Service' for Fishermen

Available for viewing on the Provincial Fisheries Safety Technology Institute website and mobile from the 1st

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Saeyan] The Gyeongsangnam-do Fisheries Safety Technology Institute has drastically revamped and launched the ‘Haehwang Information Service’ from the 1st, allowing users to view marine area information within Gyeongnam Province at a glance.

The ‘Haehwang Information Service’ is an information system where anyone in the fishing industry can access data on water temperature, dissolved oxygen, red tides, and the range of abnormal marine phenomena occurrences for six marine areas within the province every month through the Gyeongsangnam-do Fisheries Safety Technology Institute’s website and mobile platform.

Since September last year, the Fisheries Safety Technology Institute has collaborated with the Provincial Government Innovation Promotion Team for four months to build the ‘Haehwang Information Service’ that addresses the limitations of sharing marine condition information.

Until now, the Fisheries Safety Technology Institute and five support centers provided marine condition information to fishermen via SNS or text messages, but there were difficulties in delivering information promptly.

Accordingly, the revamped ‘Haehwang Information Service’ allows for systematic accumulation and sharing of collected marine condition information.

Furthermore, it plans to enhance usability by linking with the Gyeongnam Big Data Hub platform.

It also displays graphs showing changes over time compared to the previous year and previous month for regular monitoring points.

Results from irregular monitoring points related to fishing disasters are also made available for viewing, enabling fishermen to experience tangible benefits.

In particular, this information system is expected to serve as a catalyst for the Fisheries Safety Technology Institute to get one step closer to fishermen by improving the working methods of information providers and allowing beneficiaries to conveniently share marine condition information.
