Increasing population levels, rapid economic growth and rise in community living standard accelerates the generation rate of municipal solid waste (MSW) in Indian cities. Improper management of MSW causes hazards to inhabitants. The objectives of the study are to determine the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of MSW along with basic information and to create GIS maps for Allahabad city. The samples have been randomly collected from various locations and analyzed to determine the characteristics of MSW. A questionnaire survey has been carried out to collect data from inhabitants including MSW quantity, collection frequency, satisfaction level, etc. The Geographic Information System (GIS) has been used to analyze existing maps and data, to digitize the existing sanitary ward boundaries and to enter the data about the wards and disposal sites. The total quantity of MSW has been reported as 500 ton/day, and the average generation rate of MSW has been estimated at 0.39 kg/capita/day. The generated ArcGis maps give efficient information concerning static and dynamic parameters of the municipal solid waste management (MSWM) problem such as the generation rate of MSW in different wards, collection point locations, MSW transport means and their routes, and the number of disposal sites and their attributes.
人口增长、经济快速发展以及社区生活水平的提高，加速了印度城市城市固体废弃物（MSW）的产生率。城市固体废弃物管理不当会对居民造成危害。本研究的目的是确定城市固体废弃物的定量和定性特征以及基本信息，并为阿拉哈巴德市创建地理信息系统（GIS）地图。已从不同地点随机采集样本并进行分析，以确定城市固体废弃物的特征。开展了问卷调查，以收集居民关于城市固体废弃物数量、收集频率、满意度等方面的数据。地理信息系统（GIS）已用于分析现有地图和数据，将现有卫生区边界数字化，并输入有关各卫生区和处置场的数据。据报告，城市固体废弃物总量为500吨/天，城市固体废弃物平均产生率估计为0.39千克/人/天。生成的ArcGis地图提供了有关城市固体废弃物管理（MSWM）问题的静态和动态参数的有效信息，如不同卫生区的城市固体废弃物产生率、收集点位置、城市固体废弃物运输方式及其路线，以及处置场数量及其属性。
