Conference Paper Description

Residents living close to Sasang Industrial Area (SIA) in Busan, South Korea, have long complained about unpleasant odors emitted by nearby factories. This paper shows how Busan municipal government, with the support of the central government, has effectively reduced residents’ complaints by 80% in five years. A major contributing factor to this success was the use of IoT technology to monitor odors and pinpoint their sources. Sensors and CCTV cameras were installed throughout SIA to measure and record changes around the clock. These real time data and visual images were relayed to the Integrated Odors Control Center located within the Sasang District office building. The Control Center then shared the information with relevant government authorities and the public.
