[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Hwan-joo] Muan County, Jeollanam-do (Governor Kim San) announced on the 2nd that it installed object address guide facilities at 15 locations, including earthquake outdoor shelters and small urban parks, last month.

Object addresses indicate the location of various facilities other than buildings by using road names and base numbers. Installing address plates enables rapid response by providing location information to related agencies such as fire departments and police in case of disasters and safety accidents.

Therefore, object addresses were assigned to 554 locations closely related to daily life, such as bus stops, earthquake outdoor shelters, small parks, and drowsiness rest areas, and address plates were installed at 15 locations designated as urban parks and earthquake outdoor shelters, including school playgrounds.

The county plans to continuously assign object addresses to life-saving boxes (water play facilities), electric vehicle charging stations, and other facilities closely related to residents' safety and daily life.

Governor Kim San said, “To protect the lives of county residents in case of accidents, we will assign national point numbers and object addresses to mountains, rivers, and parks without road name addresses and further expand the installation of location notification signboards.”
