The Gyeonggi Autonomous Driving Center (GADC) is the operating organization of Pangyo Zero City (autono- mous driving experimental complex), located in Pangyo Techno Valley 1 and 2. This center collects data and develops mobility services for residents by providing empirical support for autonomous vehicle companies. Also, the GADC contributes to the creation of a public autonomous driving system in the country by promoting Gyeonggi-do and Industry-Academia-Research Institute.

Background

• An autonomous driving experimental complex in Pangyo Techno Valley 2 based on an open platform is under construction, where autonomous vehicles and related technologies such as AI will be tested (November 2016 - December 2021)
• As part of the autonomous-vehicle infrastructure completed (Pangyo Techno Valley 2, Zone 1 in November 2018, and Pangyo Techno Valley 1 in April 2019), the GADC was established to operate and manage the autonomous driving experimental complex.

Center Overview

• Center name: Gyeonggi-do Autonomous Driving Center
• Opening date : 2019. 5. 31.
• Business location: Gyeonggi Business Growth Center (B1, 2nd and 9th floor) in Pangyo Techno Valley 2
• Operation method: Consignment by the Advanced Institute of Convergence Technology (January 2019 - December 2021)
  - Under the agreement, a new organization under the Institute of Convergence Technology, dedicated to the operation of the experimental complex was established (GADC, March 15, 1993)
