산림생태계서비스빅데이터센터와 산학협력 리빙랩 업무협약

Industry-academic cooperation agreed for big data on forest ecosystem

Jeju National University signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Forest Ecosystem Service Center Friday (Dec. 17).

The purpose of the MOU is to develop projects based on industry-academic cooperation so that the university and the forestry data provider parties can actively respond to the great shift of digitization.

Under the MOU, the two parties agreed to cooperate in developing a Jeju-type model for big data-based industry-academic cooperation projects, running the Living Lab for forest ecosystem services, and developing data for basic research on tourist policy development and policy proposals, and training experts in the big data industry.

The Living Lab, one of the key contents of the MOU, is a field-centered problem-solving methodology designed for technological or social innovation. The Living Lab for forest ecosystem services aims to practically link the Forest Ecosystem Service Center to major tourism policies of Jeju Island.
