Abstract

Abstract : The waste management of an evolving smart city environment is one of the most important tasks as the living conditions and health of the population depend on proper waste management. Currently deployed systems are failing to monitor the garbage production as they use IoT-based pipelines to monitor the production in a locality, but often the device is used to get destroyed by the frequent use of dustbin. This leads to an increase in expenditure and affects the sustainability of the system. In this work, we propose an efficient and scalable garbage monitoring and collection methodology based on time-series forecasting techniques. The proposed system is also cost-effective because of the iterative deployment of rented IoT sensors, which are used to collect time series format data and then used to train the forecasting module to learn the temporal representation of the data that can produce accurate results for monitoring the fill-up time of the garbage collector. We also propose an efficient collection in-routing technique based on the ranking of bin stations on the basis of temporal and spatial data of the fill-up time and route location to minimize the collection time by making an efficient routing algorithm for garbage collection. This concept of garbage collection will be very useful for smart city planners.
