In the contemporary world, ecological monitoring of industrialized areas represents a vital component of global environmental security. The intensive development of industrial enterprises has led to an increasing number of factors that negatively impact the environment [1]. Navoiy city, one of the major industrial centers of the Republic of Uzbekistan, serves as a vivid example of this problem. Navoiy city was established in 1958 and primarily developed around the Navoiy Mining and Metallurgical Combine and its associated industrial enterprises. The city's geographical location and industrial characteristics make it a particularly noteworthy object from an ecological monitoring perspective [2]. The presence of gold mining, uranium enrichment, and chemical industry enterprises significantly impacts the environmental situation. Ecological monitoring is a system of regular observation, assessment, and forecasting of environmental conditions, implemented to identify and prevent changes dangerous to humans and nature [3]. In industrialized areas, such monitoring is particularly important because various pollutants can simultaneously exert their influence. Main part. This research was conducted based on literature review methodology. The analysis process utilized Uzbek, Russian, and foreign sources. During the data collection process, scientific articles, government reports, international organization reports, and statistical data were analyzed. International experience in ecological monitoring systems demonstrates that an effective monitoring program should include several key components: air quality monitoring, water resource control, soil condition assessment, and biodiversity observation [4]. The experience of ecological monitoring in industrialized areas of the Russian Federation shows that a comprehensive approach yields the most effective results [5]. Research conducted on ecological problems in Central Asia indicates that the pollution levels of atmospheric air, water sources, and soil in the region's industrial centers exceed international standards [6]. This situation is also relevant for Navoiy city. Analysis of available data on the ecological monitoring system in Uzbekistan reveals that the number of monitoring stations in the country and their technical equipment are insufficient [7]. This problem is particularly acute in major industrial centers like Navoiy. Comparison of literature review results indicates that the development of an ecological monitoring system in Navoiy city should consist of several stages. First and 115 ACADEMIC RESEARCH IN MODERN SCIENCE International scientific-online conference foremost, it is necessary to analyze the activities of existing monitoring stations and assess their effectiveness. Air quality monitoring data from Navoiy city shows that in some areas of the city, concentrations of particulate matter and sulfur dioxide exceed permissible standards [8]. This situation is primarily related to the activities of metallurgical enterprises. Internat
