A computer vision framework for monitoring construction waste in static skips
Abstract
This research addresses the existing gap in automating monitoring activities for construction and demolition waste, despite notable technological advancements in the construction industry. The study aims to propose a method for automatically detecting waste material added to dumpsters. By employing cameras placed on construction sites, the proposed system utilizes computer vision and deep learning techniques to analyse images. The system tracks the type and quantity of waste material being disposed, thereby eliminating the need for manual monitoring. Ultimately, this research contributes to cost reduction, time savings, and improved waste monitoring and management in the construction industry.
