Today, we will look into the Strengths of Korea’s Smart City following the Episode 1. We show you three representative solutions
Example 1) Integrated Smart City Data Platform
The first example is the Integrated Smart City Data Platform.
Since the adoption of this platform,
the Smart City Integrated Operation Center has been able to provide
such information as real-time on-site videos and traffic data
to police and emergency agencies, and support prompt responses.
In fact, Daejeon City could reduce the crime rate and shorten the dispatch time of ambulances!
Example 2) Smart Transportation
Second, we have various transportation solutions.
In particular, we use One-pass transportation card
for using buses, subway lines, highways nationwide.
It has dramatically raised convenience for citizens.
The excellence of the transportation card
and the Bus Information System(BIS) were recognized abroad,
so they were even exported to Bogota and Bangkok
Example 3) Zero Energy Housing
Third, energy solutions.
As a part of a testbed project,
we build a zero-energy housing complex of 115 households in Seoul.
As a result, they could save 74% of the energy by applying passive technologies
including super insulation and air-tightness.
The project achieved also zero energy
by using renewable energies including PV and geothermal energy.
