Improving collection efficiency through remote monitoring of charity assets.
Collection costs associated with servicing a major UK charity's donation banks and collecting unsold goods from their retail shops can account for up to 20% of the overall income gained. Bank and shop collections are commingled and are typically made on fixed days of the week irrespective of the amounts of materials waiting to be collected. Using collection records from a major UK charity, this...

متن کاملDynamic Collection Scheduling Using Remote Asset Monitoring: a Case Study in the Uk Charity Sector
In the waste collection sector, remote sensing technology is now coming onto the market, allowing waste and recycling receptacles to report their fill levels at regular intervals. This enables collection schedules to be dynamically optimised to better meet true servicing needs, so reducing transport costs and ensuring that visits to clients are made in a timely fashion. This paper describes a r...
متن کاملImproving Remote Species Identification through Efficient Training Data Collection
Plant species identification and mapping based on remotely-sensed spectral signatures is a challenging task with the potential to contribute enormously to ecological studies. Success in this task rests upon the appropriate collection and use of costly field-based training data, and researchers are in need of ways to improve collection efficiency based on quantitative evidence. Using imaging spe...
متن کاملImproving Inland Water Quality Monitoring through Remote Sensing Techniques
Chlorophyll-a (chl-a) levels in lake water could indicate the presence of cyanobacteria, which can be a concern for public health due to their potential to produce toxins. Monitoring of chl-a has been an important practice in aquatic systems, especially in those used for human services, as they imply an increased risk of exposure. Remote sensing technology is being increasingly used to monitor ...
