Quantity of waste
Date and time of collection
GPS location (automatically retrieved using device GPS)
Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) Guidelines:
The app includes a built-in database of CPCB guidelines for biomedical waste disposal.
Users can access guidelines relevant to the type of waste being handled to ensure proper handling and disposal procedures are followed.
Route Tracking:
