Abstract

The rapid increase in solid waste poses a significant challenge for developing nations, primarily driven by shifting lifestyles, urbanization, and population growth across the country. Managing the growing volume of solid waste has become increasingly difficult. Effective waste disposal and transportation are crucial aspects that demand immediate attention. The primary objective is to gain a comprehensive understanding of the present scenario of a solid waste disposal site using GIS. By analyzing spatial data, including the distribution, quantity, and characteristics of the waste, the project aims to inform effective waste management strategies. Furthermore, this study focuses on evaluating the existing procedures related to solid waste collection, transportation, and disposal within the study area. By examining current practices, strengths, and weaknesses can be identified, leading to recommendations for process optimization and improvement. By tracking and monitoring waste collection vehicles in real-time, the project aims to prevent illegal dumping by ensuring adherence to designated routes and authorized disposal sites. This measure enhances control and accountability within waste management operations, promoting a more efficient and environmentally friendly approach. As the quantity of solid waste varies across different wards, it is essential to address this issue in developing countries. Protecting the surrounding environment requires a collaborative effort involving government bodies, local authorities, and the community residing in the area. By collectively addressing the problem of solid waste and regulating human activities, we can ensure a sustainable and cleaner environment.
