Waste data on line : a part of the collaborative future big data in waste and ressources ?

Overview & Synopsis

An internet site launched in September 2017 to host and retrieve the private and public waste data composition using a structured, online database, and to share in a controlled way proprietary data and/or to have access to others' data and public data, will be presented. Previous attempts managed by public authorities have failed, probably due to lack of collaboration by data holder and top-down controlled system (Gaschick et al. 2004, Morstadt and Striegel 2003, Oberdörfer et al. 2008). The system interests the stakeholders of the waste. It will contribute to information about substances of concern in products and waste, an important aspect that hinder the transition to a circular economy.
