Korea Land & Housing Corporation (LH) said on the 20th it will fully operate the real-time integrated construction information system (RICS), which checks and analyzes risk factors at construction sites nationwide in real time to prevent safety accidents.
The real-time integrated construction information system (RICS) aggregates and displays at a glance construction information such as work status and workforce and equipment deployment at LH sites nationwide, as well as disaster status, and is an intelligent safety management system that helps detect dangerous situations in real time through site-by-site risk analysis.
LH began building the system in March last year, set up a dedicated task force (TF), and carried out phased pilot operations, and in the first half of this year completed function enhancements after collecting on-site feedback to improve stability and usability.
LH will use this system to select daily 20 of the 350 LH construction sites nationwide with high work risk and push "pinpoint safety management." In particular, at the selected high-risk sites, LH plans to significantly strengthen its management framework to proactively eliminate risk factors that could lead to safety accidents and to respond immediately when dangerous situations occur by using tools such as "Neulbom A-Eye." Neulbom A-Eye analyzes CCTV footage and Internet of Things (IoT) sensor data with AI, and when it detects a dangerous situation, it broadcasts voice alerts through on-site speakers and warns relevant personnel.
Lee Sang-jo, head of LH's Smart Construction Safety Division, said, "We are working to overcome the limits of traditional on-site, manpower-centered management and to build a seamless safety management system by using smart technologies such as AI."
