Satellite monitoring systems can be used for remote monitoring of the atmosphere over a given area but they do not provide information on the state of pollution at a given time. Additional information could only be obtained after several days. Measurements from an aircraft may be obtained almost at real-time and in different geometries – vertical and horizontal. The future of this type of monitoring is remote-controlled unmanned aerial vehicles (airplanes, helicopters and balloons tethered), equipped with telemetric monitoring.


In the present day scenario, pollution caused by humans affects all the parameters of the environment (air, water, soil and sound). Air pollution is becoming a major concern in urban areas can expose the people to health issues like asthma attacks, lung problems, heart diseases etc. In this paper, two different methods are studied in monitoring the air quality of an environment. The first method involves usage of AWS cloud with a microcontroller and sensor. The second method uses Arduino along with Wi- Fi module and a sensor for measuring the level of pollutants and monitoring the air quality of a given environment.
