Seongdong-gu Builds Life-Oriented 3-Generation Smart Seongdong Map

Existing Smart Seongdong Map Upgraded to 3rd Generation User-Centered Smart Seongdong Map Self-Developed and Released... Establishing a Map-Based Public Information Integration System Optimized for Local Conditions to Provide Region-Specific Public Information

Seongdong-gu, Seoul (Mayor Jeong Wono) has completed the development of the 3rd generation Smart Seongdong Map, an upgraded version of the existing Smart Seongdong Map, and has made it available to residents.

The newly built system is a map platform developed to be operated at the basic local government level, optimized for Seongdong-gu’s specific conditions, allowing integrated management of map-based public information.

With the advent of the 4th Industrial Revolution era, the demand from the private sector for open public information held by local governments has been increasing every year. In response, Seongdong-gu has developed and operated the 1st and 2nd generation Smart Seongdong Maps since 2019.

Recently, Seongdong-gu undertook a system upgrade to make data maintenance easier and to secure system scalability. The previously operated Seongdong Map had issues such as difficulty in integrated management of basic data, creation of various life-oriented map services, and maintenance of public information. To improve this, a life-oriented map service specialized for Seongdong-gu was designed, and the system was completed over the course of one year.

The district organized the system into four units?integrated management, web and mobile maps, and life-oriented maps?to enable continuous integration and expanded operation of public information. Through this, Seongdong-gu provides differentiated public information services to residents, improving information accessibility as well as user convenience. The improved Smart Seongdong Map allows users to search for various public information such as local pharmaceutical waste collection boxes, emergency evacuation facilities, and smart rest areas.

Additionally, public information closely related to residents’ lives is provided as thematic map services such as ▲City Good for Education ▲Fire-Free Safe Village ▲Women-Safe Seongdong, enhancing understanding of key policies. The 3rd generation Smart Seongdong Map is accessible to anyone through the Seongdong-gu Office website.

Jeong Wono, Mayor of Seongdong-gu, stated, “Through this self-developed system, we reduced construction costs and secured an integrated management system for map-based public information,” adding, “We will continue to discover and systematize public information services specialized for the region.”
