Address information facilities are essential infrastructure that utilize road name addresses to provide accurate location information and support emergency dispatch. These include road name signs, building number plates, base number plates, and object address plates.


This survey covered a total of 65,353 facilities in Goyang City, including 10,182 road name signs, 50,396 building number plates, 2,338 base number plates, 2,206 object address plates, 9 address information guide boards, and 222 national point number plates, to inspect the overall management status of these facilities.


The city enhanced the efficiency of the survey by using the mobile address information system (KAIS) to capture real-time images and input data. In particular, the survey focused on checking for loss or damage to the facilities, the appropriateness of the displayed information, the accuracy of installation locations, and the visibility of the facilities.


The survey found that 2,792 facilities had been lost or damaged. The city plans to carry out maintenance and repairs for these facilities by the end of the year.


Through this survey, the city expects to create an environment where citizens and visitors can find their way more easily and accurately. In particular, it is anticipated that the improvements will enhance the speed of essential services such as 119 emergency dispatch, parcel delivery, and other daily services.



Mayor Lee Donghwan of Goyang Special City stated, "We will systematically inspect and maintain road name address-based facilities that have been lost or damaged due to the recent record-breaking heavy rainfall in Goyang City, in order to minimize inconvenience to citizens."
