Technology development is underway to safely and smartly manage aging facilities in Gyeongbuk Province.
The workshop on ‘AIoT-based 3-type collective facility safety management platform technology development’ was held at Sonobel Resort in Gyeongju for 2 days and 1 night from the 24th to the 25th of last month. The first-year workshop was held with DS Tech as the main organization, Pohang University of Science and Technology, Azone Tech, Korea Construction Living Environment Testing and Research Institute, Pohang City, and smart city experts in attendance.
This research is a project to develop safety inspection and disaster prevention technology for three types of collective facilities for the ‘Regional Customized Disaster and Safety Problem Solving Technology Development Support’ supported by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety and Gyeongsangbuk-do Province with an investment of approximately KRW 2.1 billion from April of this year to December 2023. The goal is to build a platform for safety management of three types of collective facilities and a smart digital management system for facility safety information through safety inspection support for three types of collective facilities, sensor/video data collection for facility risk response, commercial communication network utilization, and big data analysis.
The workshop on that day included in-depth discussions on the research institute’s technology development plans and current status, detailed research and development content and schedule for selection and on-site application of aging facilities in Pohang City, attempts to resolve project implementation issues and on-site difficulties, and specific discussions on cooperation measures between research institutes.
Park Cheon-deok, CEO of DS Tech, said, “By utilizing the technology developed through this project, we can shorten the period of about a week for on-site inspection-diagnosis-analysis of three types of facilities by 2-3 days, and we can significantly reduce the cost of accurate diagnosis and duplicate inspection based on data compared to visual inspection, thereby enabling safety management of facilities.”
