KIOST campus<\/span>
\n <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n The Air Force is partnering with ocean research institutions to build an integrated monitoring-and-response system capable of addressing climate-driven disasters and maritime accidents simultaneously. Officials say this is the first concrete effort to link air and sea on a single operational platform.<\/p>\n
On the 27th, the Korea Institute of Ocean Science & Technology (KIOST) and the Air Force’s 5th Air Mobility Wing held a workshop titled \\”Building an Air-Sea Convergence Cooperation Platform in the AI Era\\” at Gimhae Air Base to discuss joint measures for responding to complex crises.<\/p>\n
The workshop served as the first official forum to integrate air and maritime surveillance and response capabilities as climate change makes disasters larger and more complex.<\/p>\n
Delegates focused on combining KIOST’s AI-driven ocean observation and forecasting tools with the 5th Wing’s air-operations expertise to create a complex-crisis monitoring-and-response system. The goal is an integrated platform that can detect maritime incidents and climate disasters at once and speed a coordinated response.<\/p>\n
The 5th Wing operates the KC-330, a multipurpose aerial-refueling and transport aircraft, and is a key unit for disaster response and overseas emergency operations. The wing has supported humanitarian missions including COVID-19 vaccine deliveries, repatriation of General Hong Beom\u2011do’s remains, and evacuations of Korean nationals from the Middle East.<\/p>\n
Both organizations also discussed applying the aircraft-centered equipment-management practices used by the wing to maritime operations, benchmarking those systems to improve the efficiency and reliability of ocean observation equipment.<\/p>\n
Kang Geun-shin, commander of the Air Force’s 5th Air Mobility Wing, said, \\”The 5th Wing’s mission is to go wherever citizens are in danger. By combining our transport capacity and disaster-response experience with KIOST’s research capabilities, we can build a powerful response system to protect the public.\\”<\/p>\n
Lee Hee-seung, president of KIOST, said, \\”The sky and the sea meet, but opportunities for cooperation have been limited. If aviation and ocean science converge on a common AI foundation, we can create a new national model for responding to the climate crisis.\\”<\/p>\n
KIOST plans to use the collaboration as a springboard to expand air-sea convergence research and help solve national challenges such as maritime-accident response and public safety.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
