Abstract

The tremendous growth in the rate of urbanization in the past few decades has in turn increased the need for a stable and sustainable urban development plan. Solid waste collection is a very complex process that involves efficient management of the entire system, starting from the collection to the dumping of wastes, hygienically. This paper describes the real-time monitoring and management of waste collection system, thus, enabling us to be excused from collecting semi-empty bins. Furthermore, the incoming data can be effective to determine the minimum number of vehicles associated or bins to distribute. This paper hence gains insights into the status of waste in a city and therefore contributes to a cost-efficient, eco-friendly and more systematic way of waste collection.
