With the rapid development of urbanization and industrialization, atmospheric pollution has become a major environmental problem of global concern. The problem of atmospheric pollution not only destroys the ecological en-vironment of the earth, but also has a serious impact on people's health and development. Therefore, accurate prediction of atmospheric monitoring data is of great significance to environmental management as well as public health. To improve the accuracy of prediction, we propose a prediction method for atmospheric monitoring data based on Trans-former and Generative Adversarial Network (GAN). Firstly, data pre-processing is performed on the collected atmospheric monitoring data, and then, constructing a prediction model based on Transformer and GAN for atmospheric monitoring data, aiming at extracting the data features of atmospheric monitoring data by Transformer and generating the data by using the generator of GAN. In addition, we improve the position encoding (PE) of the Transformer in order to it can efficiently extract temporal features of atmospheric monitoring data. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by data from three air monitoring stations in a city.
