Municipal solid waste management has seen a surge in the use of satellite imagery decision-making processes, yet its application to analyze quantitative variations construction and demolition (C&D) remains under-investigated. This study employs multivariate analysis comprehensively assess predict C&D generation four diverse urban jurisdictions Canada (Regina) USA (Seattle, Buffalo, Philadelphia). Factors such as settlement area expansion, economic activities, population growth significantly influence rates. Stepwise regression models tailored different city types, moderately populated (Group 1) highly 2), showcase acceptable predictive capabilities. For cities, area, average humidity, GDP are identified key predictors, while for unemployment rate, building permit value prove effective indicators. These models, characterized by R² values from 0.70 0.94, provide insights distinct demographic conditions, aiding planning. research underscores importance understanding dynamics empowers policymakers agencies with evidence-based strategies centers.
