Abstract
An appraisal of Waste disposal for environmental assessment and management in Lagos Mainland of Lagos state using the GIS has
been carried out. GIS has been a veritable tool for analyzing, storing, querying, capturing, displaying and managing of Geographic
information or data. This paper addressed the usefulness of Geographic information system applications in Waste disposal
distribution and in management. The coordinates of the existing waste dump were collected through field survey and a Garmin 78Sc
hand held Global positioning system (GPS) receiver was used in the coordinate acquisition. The result of the field observations and
analysis showed that the GIS can be used to efficiently monitor waste disposal location, Scheduling of Waste-Bin and this can
invariably be used for proper planning in environmental sanitation, assessment and management holistically. This study shows that
the use of Geographic Information system cannot be overemphasized in the spatial mapping of solid waste disposal for
environmental management and sanitation assessment.
