Yangcheon-gu Launches Service for Establishing Mid- to Long-Term Master Plan for Smart City

ICT and Big Data Integration to Realize a 'Resident-Perceptible' Smart City... Yangcheon-gu to Establish a Comprehensive Smart City Roadmap Over the Next 5 Years

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Yangcheon-gu (Mayor Kim Soo-young) held a kickoff briefing session on the smart city mid- to long-term master plan establishment project on the 7th, attended by experts including the Smart City Policy Advisory Committee members.

A smart city is a city that produces, collects, and analyzes various urban data based on ICT technology to create a sustainable city and improve the quality of life for its citizens.

Through this project, Yangcheon-gu plans to establish the "Yangcheon-type Smart City Strategic Plan," which will serve as a platform for innovative growth by solving urban problems based on 4th Industrial Revolution technologies.

This project aims to prepare a mid- to long-term smart city plan for Yangcheon-gu over the next five years, reflecting regional characteristics through thorough status analysis such as data analysis, department interviews, and living labs where residents participate in daily life.

Yangcheon-gu is an area where large apartment complexes and houses coexist. The district intends to harmoniously connect the two areas by estimating services to solve urban problems such as smart infrastructure applicable to public facilities during the reconstruction of Mokdong Apartments, as well as safety and traffic issues in densely populated residential areas.

The master plan project, which will be carried out until February next year, is expected by the district to present a comprehensive roadmap including vision, goals, and implementation strategies for the smart city.

Kim Soo-young, Mayor of Yangcheon-gu, stated, "Yangcheon-gu has accumulated considerable infrastructure through the Living Smart City Special Zone project and the introduction of smart technologies in urban regeneration areas. Based on this, various smart services will be organically connected to enhance the status of Smart City Yangcheon-gu. At the same time, we will do our best to select practically executable projects to create a smart city that residents can truly feel."
