The following solutions were generated:
• Reduction of fine particulate matter generated from roads by installing a dampening wall in
front of Dong-il Elementary School in Suseong-gu
• Development of a safe management platform for teenagers on their way home through Big
Data analysis of moving routes around Gosan-dong, Suseong-gu
• Eco-bin installation to solve the problem of unauthorized garbage in Dong-gu's Safe Creation
Valley, etc. For this, a small-scale demonstration has been completed.
From the 12 problems uncovered during the second generation of operation, traffic safety and
resource recovery were selected as research tasks, and R&D demonstration is being carried out.
In this way, Daegu is promoting the creation of a smart city based on inhabitant participation where
inhabitants comprehend urban problems directly, come up with solutions using novel ideas, and
implement them throughout the city after small-scale R&D demonstrations. In this process, local
businesses can participate and grow, thereby nurturing a smart city ecosystem where the well-being
of inhabitants is looked after and businesses can thrive.
