IoT ecosystem for waste collection

This article presents a cloud-based IoT system for waste management that integrates access control, RFID, sensors, and asset tracking to support digitalised and data-driven collection operations. It improves efficiency by optimising routes, enabling real-time monitoring, and reducing emissions without major infrastructure changes. Key features include smart access control (ID-Access) with multiple identification methods, support for pay-as-you-throw (PAYT) systems through RFID-based tracking, and sensor technologies for monitoring bin fill levels and asset location. The solution enhances operational visibility, improves resource management, and reduces losses through automated data collection and remote management.
