Automated Garbage Management System for Smart City Applications

The Automated Garbage Management System (AGMS) as proposed herein provides a technological solution to the collection and management of garbage in urban and suburban areas. A microcontroller-based system, integrated with a GSM module will be able to inform the local municipality about the status of the bins, about them being filled, or unfilled, ensuring the cleanliness of the area. The concerned municipality officials will be automatically informed as and when the dustbin needs to be cleared. Further, a website has been developed, which will be integrated with the AGMS, and will provide live information about the bin status using a color-coding system for ease of understanding. Overall, this system will work efficiently to ensure that the dustbins get cleaned at proper times, keeping a check on overfilled or overflowing bins society remains clean and healthy while being cheap and automated.
