Abstract
In developing nations, the amount of solid waste is rapidly rising. This is mostly because to the shift in people's lifestyles, urbanization, and countrywide population expansion. The solid waste, which is increasing today, is very difficult to control. The disposal and transportation of solid waste are the most crucial steps. The primary goal of this project is to use remote sensing and a geographic information system to locate an appropriate site or location for the disposal of solid waste (GIS). The location chosen for the disposal of solid waste should be both acceptable to the general public and environmentally sound. Due to human activity, the amount of solid waste may differ from one ward to another. The amount of solid waste is rapidly increasing in developing countries. The main reason for this is, due to the new lifestyle of the people, urbanization and increase in the population growth of the country. It is very to manage the solid waste which is increasing now-a- day. The most important thing is the , disposal and transportation of the solid waste. The main objective of this project is to find the suitable site or location for the disposal of solid waste using Remote Sensing and Geographical Information System (GIS). The site selected for the disposal of solid waste should be environmental suitable and should be public acceptable. The amount of solid waste may vary from one ward to another ward due to human activities. In order to protect the surrounding environment, the problem of solid waste must be solved and human activities should be controlled. This can be done in co - operation between the government, local authorities, and the local community around the area.
Key Words: Urbanisation, Population growth, Solid Waste, Remote Sensing, Geographical Information System (GIS).
