About Project
The project is to develop a Smart Waste Monitoring solution for municipal street trashcans that connect to the City of San Leandro’s Wireless Mesh Network (6LoWPAN) on the newly installed and almost completed 2,700+ Smart Street Lights project. This solution will feed data via sensors regarding trash fill levels for a network of San Leandro trashcans to the OSIsoft PI Software platform, providing waste management staff with intelligent/digital notifications and recommended actions. The project is still in beta phase, and the community is welcome to join the celebration to find out more!
