Garbage Management System for Smart Cities

Abstract

Waste management is one of the major issues brought forth by urbanization. The conventional mode of garbage collection is not efficient and time-consuming, with no real-time monitoring processes, hence leading to overflowing bins and environmental pollution. The Garbage Management System for Smart Cities addresses the need for a scientific approach-integration of IoT, AI, and GPS technologies. Continuous monitoringof the level of garbage bysensors fitted in smart dustbins sends data to an AI-based Admin. Further, the Admin itself automatically assigns a driver based on his availability, near distance, and based on traffic data. Also, it monitors real-time progress and triggers alerts and reminders. The approach enhances operational efficiency while supporting the sustainable development for the purpose of smarter cities. Disposing of waste is one of the major components in smarter regions / areas, where different methods often lead to harm in environment and health hazards.
