According to AI TIMES, the Ministry of the Interior and Safety said on September 28 that it has drawn up a government-wide comprehensive plan to apply artificial intelligence across disaster safety work and plans to invest about KRW 900 billion by 2030. The core of the plan is to shift the disaster response system from post-incident response to AI-based preparedness, and to do so while advancing 50 projects and data build-out together. It will also convert unstructured disaster safety documents into structured data so generative AI can use them right away, and lay the groundwork for analyzing information scattered across agencies by grouping it by incident. The ministry also plans to reorganize public websites into structures that are easier for AI to read and to spell out procedures for providing disaster safety data so private and public sectors can use it. Working with local governments, it will also begin a pilot build of a decision-support service for typhoon and heavy-rain response to assess its feasibility in the field. The ministry said it intends to fully accelerate the transition in disaster safety by linking the data accumulated in this way with field operations to help civil servants make decisions.
Perspective
This plan suggests that AI in disaster safety is entering a stage where it will change not just as a support tool, but the work system and data structure itself. In particular, as the focus clearly shifts from post-incident response to preparedness, the speed and consistency of field decisions, as well as interagency collaboration, are likely to change as well. The effort to improve public data formats and website structures is also important. It shows that the success of AI use depends less on the technology itself than on how data is built and connected.
