Summary/Abstract: Environmental contamination due to poor solid waste management represents a global ecological issue. The real need for quality spatial data in the processes of solid waste management plays a key role in improving work performance and facilitating work processes. Through the implementation of modern platforms for the acquisition of spatial data, an efficient and quality method for conducting measurements without direct contact with the terrain is achieved. This paper presents the monitoring of waste quantities generated at the non-standardized "Mavrovica" landfill in Sveti Nikole using the results obtained from LiDAR scanning of the territory of the Republic of North Macedonia as well as the conducted UAV-based imaging. The presented results represent the progress and refinement of modern platforms for the acquisition of spatial data, thereby serving as a reference point for analyzing the value states of waste generated from a certain temporal distance.
