Abstract
The innovations given by the rapid development of science and technology may bless society in handling environmental issues efficiently. The main driving force behind environmental issues is population growth. As the population increases, the management of waste is becoming a difficult and challenging task for the concerned authorities. The utilization and deployment of advanced technologies, namely the Internet of Things (IoT), Cloud Computing and Image processing may aid the authorities in timely manage the garbage and keep the environment clean. In time management of waste will help the society to meet the alarming situations like inhaling of toxic gases and various health diseases. This paper discusses the state-of-art technologies that have been employed in literature for waste management. Also, the authors proposed a novel architecture for waste management that utilizes the concept of IoT and image processing. The proposed architecture acts as a surveillance system to monitor the overflow of the garbage and delivers a message to the concerned authorities to take the necessary and immediate action.
