Ulsan City Selected for 'Digital Twin National Pilot Project' Two Years in a Row

Development of Generative AI-Based Interactive Administrative Information Service

Ulsan City is establishing an artificial intelligence (AI) administrative information service integrated with ChatGPT.


By combining generative AI technology with spatial information, a system will be implemented where AI provides answers based on location information when searching for Ulsan city administration.


On the 8th, Ulsan City announced that it was finally selected in the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport’s ‘2023 Digital Twin Land Pilot Project’ contest and secured 500 million KRW in national funding.


Following last year’s selection for the ‘Digital Twin-based Carbon Neutral Utilization Model Construction Project,’ which secured 700 million KRW in national funding, this marks a consecutive two-year achievement.


For this contest, Ulsan City participated with the ‘New Concept Public Information Search Model Project Combining Artificial Intelligence and Spatial Information.’


The ‘New Concept Public Information Search Model Combining Artificial Intelligence and Spatial Information’ submitted by Ulsan City is significant as the first attempt to apply generative AI technologies, such as ChatGPT, which have recently attracted great attention, to public administrative services.


It is highly evaluated for its potential to expand into user-centered administrative services through AI trained on document-based administrative information and spatial information.


Following the contest selection, Ulsan City will first convert document-based public data, statistical information, tourism information, and other data held by various institutions into a form that generative AI can autonomously learn.


Based on this, △ a generative AI-based conversational administrative information service model △ an AI-based task execution planning model will be established.


The project period is until July 2024, with a total budget of 1 billion KRW, including national and city funds.



An official from Ulsan City stated, “Going forward, we plan to continuously discover data-driven administrative service models by integrating AI and digital replication technologies into various urban issues for analysis and prediction.”
