State-of-the-art technologies increase efficiencies and lower environmental impact
Digitization is key for municipalities aiming to respond proactively to new and future developments like smart city concepts, improving sustainability, and increasing efficiencies of the waste collecting operation. State-the-art technologies combining intelligent optimization with the Internet of Things (IoT), such as in-built sensors in underground containers, support municipalities to achieve multiple goals. These innovative technologies optimize planning and waste collection routes. This reduces the rapidly increasing number of vehicles in the streets due to the growing number of containers required for the collection of recyclables. Additionally, it reduces mileage and therefore CO2 emissions. Due to the powerful algorithms, the planners are able to produce efficient and realistic routes for both high- and low-density waste collection. Routes are optimized based on the lowest cost, while at the
same time taking the service requirements and business rules into account.
