One of the modalities is an autonomous surface vehicle (ASV), and in this case, a Roboat. Since it is not possible to assign all demand to one modality, also trucks and small electric vehicles are taken into account. This waste collection problem is represented through a facility location problem with different facility types in order to maximize the coverage with a minimum number of containers. Case studies are designed in Amsterdam Centrum, and different calculation strategies are executed to compare different methods.
