CityLabs Obtains Ministry of Land Smart City Service Certification... "And MaaS Platform Achievements"
City Labs, an integrated smart city platform company, announced on the 27th that it has obtained the 2023 Smart City Service Certification.
The 'Smart City Certification System,' implemented since 2021, is overseen by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (hereinafter referred to as MOLIT). Aiming to expand smart cities domestically and internationally, it assesses the level of smart city development in domestic cities and grants certification to outstanding smart cities and services. This year, six locations including Ulsan Metropolitan City, Suseong-gu in Daegu, and Gwanak-gu, Songpa-gu, and Jongno-gu in Seoul were newly certified as smart cities. In the smart city services category, four fields including smart mobility sharing platforms were selected.
The company explained that its affiliate 'Geuligo,' which is participating as the main operator in the MOLIT-led '2021 Jeju Special Self-Governing Province Smart City Challenge,' received favorable evaluations for the shared mobility service it established. Geuligo has completed the creation of an eco-friendly MaaS (Mobility as a Service) platform ecosystem in the Jeju area by linking renewable energy with electric-based shared mobility such as electric kickboards, electric bicycles, and electric minibikes.
The 'Geuligo' shared mobility service operates a hub-based system with 300 return points (Smart Hubs, Modrak Hubs) throughout Jeju Island, where rentals and returns are only possible at these designated hubs. Notably, it created a MaaS ecosystem covering the entire Jeju region by including optimal route guidance services based on user destinations and facilitating transfers and connections between personal mobility and public transportation.
