infrastructure and one-stop services but also to establish an interagency platform for information exchanges, thereby cementing the HSP’s status as a hub for trying out technological applications and thus helping tenant companies bring out their growth potential. Given the competition and cooperation across global supply chains, Taiwan has seen a surge in investment inflows in recent years. For its part, the HSPB will certainly redouble efforts to formulate a sound investment environment by increasing land utilization and service efficiency.
1. Information Security Services
As of the end of 2019, 97% of the HSP’s tenant companies had enrolled in the Science Park Information Sharing and Analysis Center (SP-ISAC), a platform established in accordance with a Ministry of Science and Technology initiative. The goal is to share domestic and overseas information security information with a view to offering early warning and preparing an emergency response when warranted. Pursuant to the Cyber Security Management Act, the HSPB has completed assigning cyber security responsibility levels and duties required of B-class agencies. In November 2019, the Ministry of Science and Technology conducted on-site cyber security inspections of eight government and nongovernment agencies under its jurisdiction. The HSPB was rated favorably.
2. Smart Park Services
lWireless Services
Wireless connectivity has been made available to both outdoor recreational spaces and indoor public areas throughout all HSP parks (to learn more about
the HSP’s 28 hot spots—16 indoor and 12 outdoor— that offer free WiFi access, please visit https:// auth. sipa.gov.tw/guest/public/isipa.html). In 2019, some 450,000 users took advantage of this service.
lAI Smart Traffic Control Pilot Program
In 2018, Hsinchu City and County ushered the “Project for Integrating Road Traffic and Telecommunications Information Applications Along the Greater Hsinchu Transport Corridor,” or the Greater Hsinchu Project, into the Jingguo Road corridor (Ziqiang South Road-Jingguo Bridge-Ciyun Road). In conjunction with the Greater Hsinchu project, this program calls for installation of relevant equipment at high-traffic nodes to help ease traffic congestion. To be more specific, 23 sets of roadside equipment—AI image recognition systems and radars—are to be deployed at National Freeway No. 1’s ramp exit leading to Xin’an Road and at the intersection of Yuanqu 1st Road and Xin’an Road. Upstream-downstream cooperation thus conducted will make possible cross-region coordination of road networks. Meanwhile, eTag data such as travel time, stops, and delays, real-time traffic flow captured on AI image recognition systems, and timely signal control adjustment dictated by VD readings will also prove useful in helping ease traffic congestion commonly caused by a massive inflow of vehicles to the HSP from Hsinchu City and County during peak hours.
lInstallation of a 3D Geographic Information System (GIS)
In 2019, the HSPB completed the installation of a 3D GIS, an online system that incorporates all the map data of different agencies with regard to
