Waste transportation route garbage using network analysis method, a research method design

Abstract

Semarang city is one of the cities in Indonesia and is the centre of the economy, the centre of education and it is also not free from the garbage problem. Garbage production in Semarang City is 1,200 tons per day and not fully transported. The increasing accumulation of garbage can cause pollution of soil, ground water and air. The volume of garbage that has been produced for the Banyumanik district area is 27% of all the total Semarang waste production. It is important to optimizing garbage transportation routes that can minimize transport distances and maximize transportation routes with constrain all transportable points being passed. The method used in this research is network analysis with ArcGIS10.3 application. The results of this study will display the route map of the garbage transportation which minimizes the distance of transportation from the origin to the final disposal site and a description of the trip of the shortest, fastest and cheapest route.
