Artificial intelligence is considered a powerful technology that can help significantly and effectively in activating environmental monitoring, which the world is currently moving to integrate into all development fields because of its importance as it directs to proper planning and disaster management, controlling pollution and addressing environmental challenges. It deals with various environmental systems such as Water pollution, air pollution, dangerous radiation, and weather changes. Artificial intelligence contributes to providing accurate and timely analysis of various data through which negative impacts on the environment can be predicted and mitigated. Research focuses on understanding the concept of environmental monitoring, its types, and its significance in achieving sustainable development. Exploring AI trends and applications in air pollution monitoring, particularly in urban areas like East Cairo, allows decision makers informed decision. By implementing appropriate planning recommendations, we can mitigate current adverse effects and plan for a sustainable urban environment. This approach contributes to environmental preservation and fosters sustainable urban development for future generations.
