About the TL Digital Waste Monitoring Network
AI-powered waste management system connecting citizens, authorities, and technology to combat waste management challenges in Timor-Leste
Our Mission
The TL Digital Waste Monitoring Network aims to address Timor-Leste's waste management challenges through a network of intelligent agents, community engagement, and data-driven decision-making.
Dili produces over 300 tons of waste daily, with more than 100 tons going uncollected. This waste clogs drainage systems, causing flooding and environmental damage.
Our vision is a cleaner Timor-Leste where communities are empowered to report waste issues, authorities have the data they need to prioritize cleanup efforts, and environmental health improves.
Expected First-Year Impact
How It Works
Citizen Reporting
Citizens use our Flutter-based mobile app to report waste with photos and location data. The app works in low-connectivity environments and uploads reports to our Reporting Agent.


AI-Powered Analysis
Our Analysis Agent processes waste images using ASI-1 Mini to classify waste types, assess severity, and evaluate environmental impact. The system also detects hotspots where multiple waste reports are clustered.
Coordination & Action
The data is used to prioritize cleanup efforts, directing resources to the most critical areas. The system maintains a database of waste issues and their status, tracking progress from report to resolution.


Public Dashboard
Our Next.js web dashboard provides visualizations of waste data, including interactive maps, analytics, and community leaderboards. This creates transparency and helps measure the impact of interventions over time.
