Abstract

Currently, a titanic task in the solid waste collection is the location of this type of waste within a collection circuit as part of a Logistics 4.0 model, in our research proposal a drone is used to determine in a time horizon the solid waste through which it will pass in a determined time in a specific collection route, this will allow determining in a suitable form the necessary space of the different sections from the collection truck and will influence in determining patterns of solid waste together with which it will be able to specify the requirements of the vehicle fleet required for specific demands and contingencies determined by its high variability using an artificial vision system for detection, classification, and monitoring of solid waste in an intelligent drone under the Logistics 4.0 paradigm.
