Abstract

With the increase in population, the amount of waste generated has increased significantly worldwide and proper waste management has become inevitable. In majority of the cities, trash cans are over flowing due to untimely management of waste.  An effective system is required to collect the waste from trash cans and prevent overflow. For cleaner environment and implementation of smart cities, it is essential to reduce overflowing litter cans by a monitoring system. The proposed system keeps track on trash cans and detects the level in it and updates it in a web page. The same could be viewed on a mobile app of the garbage collector and determine the shortest path by linking various routes of the almost full bins. Alerts are produced as in app-notifications for the user. The IoT based garbage monitoring system will enable to maintain a cleaner community.
