🌍 Waste management, illegal dumping, and environmental pollution require 
increasingly intelligent monitoring solutions. Recent advances in 
artificial intelligence and computer vision offer promising 
opportunities, although key challenges remain, including robustness 
across diverse environments, limited datasets and benchmarks, and 
deployment on resource-constrained systems. The Topical Collection 
provides a forum for researchers and industry professionals to present 
novel methods, datasets, benchmarks, and real-world applications in 
smart waste monitoring, illegal dumping detection, and pollution 
surveillance, while fostering interdisciplinary collaboration.

💡 Topics of interest include:
📷 Waste detection and classification from images;
🎥 Waste tracking and management from videos;
♻️ Illegal dumping detection through computer vision;
🧠 Multimodal systems for dumping identification;
🚁 Remote sensing and UAV-based waste monitoring;
🌫️ Image and video analysis for pollution monitoring;
📊 Datasets and benchmarks;
🏙️ Real-world applications in urban and rural environments.
