2022: Digitization of more than 500 landfills in Russia

In April 2022, Skyeer began executing the largest federal project for aerial monitoring of municipal solid waste landfills (MSW) in the interests of the Russian Environmental Operator PPK. IT specialists using unmanned aerial vehicles and their own software, which works in the data center in Russia, will have to assess the condition of the 500 largest landfills in 84 regions of the country. This will allow for the first time to reliably find out how much garbage is in Russia.

The primary tasks of the project are to measure the area of ​ ​ landfills and the volume of actually buried waste, as well as to detect facts of excess design capacity and violation of the boundaries of landfills. The oldest landfill to be digitized was commissioned in the late 1940s. The area of ​ ​ one polygon can vary from 3-4 hectares to several tens of hectares.

In April 2022, Skyeer began executing the largest federal project for aerial monitoring of municipal solid waste landfills (MSW) in the interests of the Russian Environmental Operator PPK.

The surveys carried out will be the starting point for the subsequent regular monitoring of the condition of landfills.

The Skyeer software complex was selected for the implementation of this project following the results of the hackathon held by the PPK REO in 2021. His goal was to find the most functional solution for building and analyzing digital twins of MSW polygons with the prerequisite that the technology should not depend on foreign software and services.

For several months, the details were agreed, and now the key project on digitalization of the waste management area has started. Skyeer specialists were able to start work only in early April 2022, when snow cover began to melt massively, which interfered with research in the winter.^[1]
