Description
Ishikawa (1966) introduced Grid City Model (GCM) in order to provide an approximate estimation of the costs for collection and transportation of municipal solid waste (MSW). This paper shows how GCM can be extended using a GIS (Geographic Information Systems) mesh data of the population. The GCM-GIS model offers better estimations for cases with uneven population distributions, or for municipalities that have complicated layouts. Sensitivity analyses were carried out with various patterns of trash separation. Results showed that the eventual times of collection has a greater effect on costs than the pattern itself.
