SmartWaste AI - Gemini Hackathon Project

AI-Powered Waste Monitoring System - Transforming city cleanliness with Google Gemini Vision AI and MongoDB geospatial data management

SmartWaste AI Database Framework

🎯 Project Overview

SmartWaste AI is an intelligent waste management platform that uses Google Gemini 2.5 Flash Vision AI to automatically analyze garbage bin fill levels from user-uploaded images. The system leverages MongoDB's geospatial capabilities to store, query, and visualize waste reports across city neighborhoods, enabling proactive waste management and efficient cleanup operations.
