The Internet of Things (IoT) influences environmental monitoring by enabling real-time data collection and analysis through interconnected sensors. These sensors can measure variables such as air quality, water quality, and energy consumption, providing valuable insights for managing environmental conditions. IoT applications facilitate proactive decision-making, such as identifying pollution sources or optimizing resource usage. By leveraging cloud computing and big data analytics, organizations can monitor environmental changes dynamically and implement timely interventions. Ultimately, IoT enhances the efficiency of environmental management strategies and contributes to sustainability efforts.
