K-water has begun to disclose public data people want to obtain. In October, the corporation launched a pilot project to disclose data from the operation of Jeongeup City’s tap water network via the public data portal, operated by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety (MOIS).

On Oct. 28, K-water said that outside people have wanted to obtain data on the operation of the tap water network since it is used for in-house operation and management purposes. 


A public survey, conducted in May, showed that demand exists for the disclosure of public data on the operation of tap water networks. 

In this context, K-water decided to divulge the data on the operation of Jeongeup City’s tap water network on a pilot basis, and it has held talks since June on the disclosure of the data with Jeongeup tap water management office. 

The data involved in the disclosure include those related to water levels, flow volumes and pressure in two reservoirs, five booster stations and seven small blocks. 

K-water plans to expand the scope of disclosure on a gradual basis, based on the outcomes of the latest public data uncasing. In particular, K-water expects to disclose detailed data sets on the operation of tap water networks, such as each consumer’s real-time supply if the smart water management project being pushed by K-water is finished. 

Data sets, revealed by K-water, will be used as basic materials for studies such as the development of tap water facility operation & management and prediction technologies. 

They are expected to expedite basic study and the development of technologies related to smart water management. 

Starting with a public survey conducted in May, K-water has made strenuous efforts to disclose public data to meet consumer-oriented demand, as the corporation formed the K-water public data team and hosted a public data contest. 

The 1st K-water Big Data Contest took place in 2017. The event is designed to award winning tasks, share analysis cases, and create insights and new values utilizing bid data related to water. K-water topped the 2019 and 2020 evaluations of public data disclosure conducted by MOIS.

K-water plans to comply with government policies of disclosing public data, such as the building of data dams, in an aggressive fashion to expedite the data economy in the years to come, he added.
