[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Se-ryeong Lee] Gyeongsangnam-do held a kickoff meeting for the 2022 Indoor Spatial Information DB Construction Project on the 21st.

The kickoff meeting held at Changwon National University Industry-Academia Convergence Technology Education Center was attended by about 50 officials, including Heo Dong-sik, Director of the Urban Housing Bureau, Yoon Hyun-gyu, Director of the Industry-Academia Cooperation Group at Changwon National University, and Jo Yoo-seop, Head of the Information Industry Promotion Division at Gyeongnam Technopark.

On this day, the attendees exchanged opinions on project promotion and employment linkage plans for young people.

The Smart Indoor Spatial Information DB Construction Project is a project to build the indoor structure of buildings in 3D, which has been promoted since 2020 targeting multi-use facilities and facilities for the elderly and children through hiring and training local youth.

According to the province, the constructed 3D building data is shared with fire and disaster departments and used for disaster preparedness.

This year, Metaview and New Vision Networks, selected through Public Procurement Service bidding, will hire 33 local youths over 8 months to build a 3D indoor spatial information database for 26 multi-use facilities and other locations.

Gyeongsangnam-do plans to provide necessary 2D/3D software education for this project and support field-oriented talent development education such as customized special lectures for employment and startup support in collaboration with Changwon National University and Gyeongnam Technopark.

As a side event, the provincial youth policy promotion team will introduce youth policies such as the Gyeongsangnam-do Youth Online Platform to participating youths.

Director Heo said, “It is expected that young people will grow into local experts leading the 4th industrial revolution through specialized education and job experience in the spatial information field,” and added, “Gyeongsangnam-do will continue to actively discover youth jobs in the spatial information convergence industry and do its best to play a leading role in the digital new industry sector.”
