Abstract: Introduction of sensor technology such as Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS), wireless communications, embedded systems, remote computing, and wireless sensor implementations has recently led to a major transformation of the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). It assists and improves work performance in industry as well as in our everyday life. Wireless Sensor Network has been commonly used in many areas especially for tracking and monitoring in agriculture and monitoring of biodiversity. Environmental surveillance has become an important area of management and security, providing real-time communication system and interaction with the physical world. A smart and intelligent Wireless Sensor Network system can capture and process large amounts of data from the start of tracking and controlling air quality, traffic patterns, to weather situations. This paper explore and analyze technologies for the environmental monitoring of wireless sensor networks. There are several standards to be met to incorporate a reliable monitoring system. Studies have shown that it is an alternative way to replace the conventional method which uses men to force monitoring of the environment. It is also established that these methods can improve the performance of the program, provide a simple and efficient method and can also satisfy practical needs.
