LH Upgrades AI Monitoring System for Faster Detection of Retaining Wall Risks

Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) announced that it is strengthening its safety management system for retaining walls and slopes by upgrading its "AI Smart Monitoring System," which combines advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and digital twins.

The AI Smart Monitoring System uses high-precision sensors installed on retaining walls to measure structural displacement and tilting in real-time, allowing AI to comprehensively analyze the accumulated data and instantly notify operators of any abnormalities.

LH has selected key locations requiring intensive management among the retaining walls and slopes under its jurisdiction nationwide, installing smart monitoring systems at 80 sites for real-time monitoring.

This upgrade improves the system's accuracy in detecting risk signs while enhancing its continuous monitoring capabilities.

As recent climate changes raise concerns over sudden heavy rainfall and heavy snowfall year-round, the system enables AI to comprehensively learn and analyze monitoring data and rainfall patterns during disaster situations to secure a "golden time of 72 hours before an accident."

LH explained that by improving the AI's detection performance through iterative learning, the system can proactively predict risk signs up to three days prior to an accident and issue warnings.

In addition, a digital twin-based "3D spatial visualization control" function has been integrated to implement field conditions into 3D models and calculate risk scores in real-time, allowing for an intuitive and three-dimensional grasp of minute risk factors on-site.

Lee Sang-jo, head of LH's Smart Safety Management Division, stated, "Our goal is to actively introduce advanced technologies such as AI and data into safety management, while continuously upgrading technology to detect risk signs more quickly and accurately," adding, "We will continue to strengthen our safety management system for public safety."
