Gangbuk-gu (Mayor Lee Soon-hee) has revamped the ‘Disaster Safety Situation Room’ to establish a 24-hour emergency response system and strengthened the functions to operate the Disaster Safety Countermeasures Headquarters and the Disaster Safety Situation Room on a continuous basis, starting operation on the 1st.


The newly established ‘Disaster Safety Situation Room’ is equipped with advanced disaster response systems such as the National Disaster Management System (NDMS), video conferencing system, CCTV control system, and disaster safety communication network. Six dedicated staff members have been hired to enable 24-hour continuous disaster response.


The Disaster Safety Situation Room conducts regular monitoring and disaster sign detection during normal times, and in the event of a disaster, it promptly receives disaster reports and disseminates information. Through organic cooperation and information sharing with the disaster site, it performs its role as the ‘Gangbuk-gu Disaster Response Control Tower.’


Additionally, by establishing a smart city integrated platform, the system links to the CCTV footage closest to the disaster location for immediate viewing. At the same time, an IoT integrated platform utilizing IoT (Internet of Things) such as image sensor attachments is also built and linked to enable real-time monitoring and response. Moving beyond existing systems, this new future-oriented advanced disaster response system is designed to meet the era of artificial intelligence.



Lee Soon-hee, Mayor of Gangbuk-gu, stated, “We will prioritize safety, strengthen disaster prevention and initial response capabilities, and do our best to create a safe and secure city Gangbuk where residents are protected from disasters.”
