The invention belongs to the technical field of environment monitoring, and discloses an ecological environment monitoring gridding system based on big data architecture and a monitoring method thereof. The system comprises a ZigBee communication module, a 5G signal communication module, an environment information detection module, an information collection module, a state indication module, a cloud server module, an environment state evaluation module, an early warning module and a man-machine interaction module. According to the invention, synchronous monitoring can be carried out on environmental information of multiple different positions at the same time, unified coordination management is facilitated, the environmental problem disposal efficiency is improved, data storage is carriedout through the cloud server, the data storage capacity and storage stability are improved, historical data can be conveniently checked, and data change analysis can be conveniently carried out; the data can be effectively simplified by performing preliminary screening processing on the collected data, the data transmission burden is reduced, and the transmission efficiency and the subsequent processing efficiency are improved, so that the response speed of the system is improved.
