Mobile App Launches Service Starting December 4th
Osan City (Mayor Gwak Sang-wook) is launching the 'Smart Osan' mobile app starting December 4th to actively address changes in the information provision paradigm following the popularization of smartphones and advances in wireless mobile communication service technology.
The city underwent a process of category composition, data collection, and content revision and refinement from March of last year to complete the 'Smart Osan' mobile app on November 11th. The city announced on the 26th that it will begin full-scale service from December 4th.
'Smart Osan' reconfigures the city's flagship homepage, which was previously provided only on PC, optimized for smartphones and smart pads while leveraging the advantages of smartphones such as portability, timeliness, and personalization, allowing users to access desired information easily and quickly.
The app was also organized into 14 categories of practical core information with sufficient consideration for users' perspectives, focusing on information necessary for daily life.
In particular, the app enables users to view event and festival information from public institutions and organizations within the city, as well as scattered information linked to their respective websites all at once on mobile, and utilizes GPS on the device to enable location searches for nearby pharmacies, medical institutions, defibrillators, and welfare facilities in Osan City.
Additionally, the provision of information about Osan City's cultural heritage, restaurant and accommodation guides, and hiking courses is expected to be useful information not only for Osan City residents but also for external tourists visiting Osan City.
The 'Walking Course' function included in the app introduces walking courses within the city and allows users to measure, calculate, and record their exercise volume while actually walking or running the courses, enabling citizens to use walking courses more enjoyably.
For users interested in real estate, the app provides real estate-related information in real time, including publicly announced land prices, map viewing, land use plans, and nearby real estate brokerage offices, by linking with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and the Korea Land Information System.
Additionally, using OpenAPI technology, the app provides real-time bus information (Gyeonggi Province), job information (Work.net), volunteer information (1365 Volunteer), and fuel price information (Korea National Oil Corporation) in real time.
A city official stated, “Through the provision of the Smart Osan app service, services that were previously available only on PC can now be easily used on mobile,” and added, “We will make greater efforts to promote the image of Osan City as an educational hub and a smart city through continuous provision of high-quality information.”
The 'Smart Osan' app can be used for free by searching for 'Smart Osan' or 'Osan City Hall' in the 'App Store' for iPhone users or the 'Play Store' for Android users, then downloading and running the app.
