Mapo-gu (District Mayor Park Gang-su) received the highest grade of "Excellent" in the "2023 Data-Based Administration Status Check" evaluation conducted by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety.

The Data-Based Administration Status Check evaluation has been conducted since 2021 under the 「Data-Based Administration Act」 to assess the status of data-based administration in central administrative agencies, local governments, and public institutions, and to reflect the results in policy improvements.

According to the district, in 2023, the Ministry of the Interior and Safety evaluated 464 institutions on 12 detailed indicators across four areas: ▲management system ▲shared utilization ▲big data analysis ▲capacity culture, selecting outstanding institutions.

Mapo-gu received high scores in all four areas and was selected as an excellent institution in data-based administration. In particular, it was highly evaluated for actively discovering data with high shared utilization when performing data analysis in public institutions, and for being the only autonomous district in Seoul to establish and implement a three-year shared utilization data opening plan.

Additionally, the use of public data analysis results for policy issues based on scientific evidence was highly praised. For example, to create a clean environment, Mapo-gu analyzed passenger status data at local bus stops and newly installed street trash bins based on this data.

Encouraged by being selected as an excellent institution in data-based administration, Mapo-gu stated that it will continue to actively utilize data analysis results to solve policy issues.

Park Gang-su, Mayor of Mapo-gu, said, "We will strive to further expand data-based administration in Mapo-gu through this excellent institution selection," and added, "We will use data analysis results as the basis for policy implementation to create a trusted Smart Mapo for residents."
