Problems in Air Quality Monitoring and Assessment

Abstract

Multifactor analysis of the formation of the level of pollution in combination with the operational forecast of the level of pollution is an effective way to help partially solve the problems of environmental pollution. The relevance of research on monitoring the state of environmental pollution is confirmed by the fact that the governments of all leading countries spend, on average, from 1% to 3% of their budgets on environmental protection measures. The paper provides an overview of known systems for monitoring the state of air, water, and soil pollution. The importance of the technical component in ensuring monitoring is shown. New tendencies concerning the application of innovative technologies in the field of environmental monitoring are revealed. By the task of monitoring the state of the environment, the structure of the information system for monitoring the state of the environment is proposed. The system should include the subsystems for collecting information on the state of the environment, the subsystem for storing and storing data, the subsystem for forecasting the state of the environment, and subsystems for interaction with the user.
