Air pollution is a significant factor that influences human health. Ahmedabad faces significant air quality challenges due to industrial growth. It is imperative to measure and mitigate the pollution in air. This thesis aims at using mobile monitoring device to measure the particulate matter concentration in GIDC Naroda in Ahmedabad. The route selection was done following visual inspection, understanding land use pattern and industrial classification. The data was collected for 21 days along with location and meteorological parameters. Analysis was performed to cognize the spots and reasons where PM2.5 and PM10 levels were high. Mitigative measures were suggested accordingly.
