    This chapter provides a review of air quality monitoring techniques ranging from traditional to advanced. It highlights types and measurement principles of sensors for the monitoring of particulate matters and gases with their advantages and shortcomings. The chapter provides a detailed account of the case studies of sensor calibrations and applications with online data publicizing, conducted by the Air Quality Research group at the Asian Institute of Technology. The air quality management system uses several technical tools to provide information on the air quality. Key technical tools include air quality monitoring, air pollution emission inventory and air quality modeling. For the environmental monitoring, the wireless sensor network is applied for air quality, water quality and natural disasters such as landslides, forest fires or volcanic eruptions. The use of wireless low-cost sensors widens the spatial and temporal distributions of the monitoring data which is important for the health effect assessment and overall air quality management.
