1. A monitoring device for monitoring an environment, comprising:
a detector component coupled to the monitoring device configured to detect at least one analyte signature data and environment information related to an environment;
wherein at least one of the detector component, communication circuitry or power source is part of a removable/replaceable module selectively attachable to a protective case;
wherein the power source is an antenna configured to receive energy wirelessly and supply the received energy to one or both of the monitoring device or a detector component;
a plurality of sensors coupled to the detector component configured to detect a concentration of the at least one analyte signature data detected;
a mobile device with a processor coupled to the detector component and configured to receive the detected at least one analyte signature data and the environment information from the detector component to interpret one or more chemical constituent signatures of interest as an analytical determination of the environment;
a location device coupled to the detector component configured to record a detection location of the detector component at a time of detection of the at least one analyte signature data and the environment information;
a first memory device coupled to the detector component configured to receive and record data comprising the analytical determination of the environment and operating status of the detector component and, at the time of detection, the detected at least one analyte signature data and the environment information;
at least one communication device coupled to the detector component configured to wirelessly transmit the recorded data to an associated receiver, wherein the associated receiver is configured to receive and process the recorded data; and
wherein the detector component and the communication circuitry are a printed component with electrodes and wherein at least one detector component includes at least one nano sensor.
