Waste tracing

Objectives:

Medium term objective (2014): Continuos optimisation of waste collection routes, minimising them and hence reducing their economic, environmental and energy costs through the installation of: * Sensors at containers providing information about whether they have been emptied or not. * Control sustem about the position of collectiong trucks in order to monitor their location in real time.

Installing sensors

Sensors at containers providing information about whether they have been emptied or not.

Phases

• Medium term objective
• Sensors in containers that provide information if they are evacuated or not.
  
• Medium term objective
• Control system about the position of collecting trucks in order to monitor location in real time.
  
• European project. Medium term objective
• Installing motion sensors in a sample container of the city, to see if they are full or not. Development of an information platform located in the "cloud", which will allow the management of data from the sensors, i optimize collection routes.
