Rapid urban growth has brought with it an inevitable problem of municipal solid waste management. A major portion of total expenditure on solid waste management (SWM) is spent on collection and transportation of waste. Optimization of route is always a challenging task for city planners. Geographical Information System (GIS) is an important tool to solve the problems of waste transportation fro...
