How does cherry blossom crowd prediction work in the app?
The app collects information through analysis of data from telecommunications equipment such as base stations. This allows it to track location data and provide insights into congestion levels in public areas. Through this analysis, the app can suggest the best possible viewing time and crowd prediction for each of the 37 cherry blossom locations.
For example, according to the A., Seokchon Lake remains the most popular destination for cherry blossom viewing. Newer parks like Jamwon Hangang Park, Yangje Citizen’s Forest, and Murwang Lake are emerging as new hotspots. It even tells people in their 20s tend to visit locations within Seoul, while those in their 30s and 40s prefer parks suitable for families. Visitors aged 50 and above often frequent spots in Gyeonggi Province.
