Garbage collection time notification method

Abstract

A vehicle transmits images in which garbage collection sites appear to a server. The server performs: identifying, among the plurality of images acquired from the vehicle, a yet-to-be-visited collection site image in which a yet-to-be-visited collection site appears that is a collection site by which a garbage truck has not yet passed in a travel route of the garbage truck; based on the identified yet-to-be-visited collection site image, calculating an estimated amount of garbage brought together at the yet-to-be-visited collection site; calculating an expected time of arrival at a collection site by which the garbage truck passes after the yet-to-be-visited collection site in the travel route such that the expected time of arrival at that collection site becomes later when the estimated garbage amount is large than when the estimated garbage amount is small; and notifying a user terminal of the expected time of arrival.
