Embodiments herein relate to vehicle filter monitoring systems and methods. In an embodiment, a filter monitoring system is included having a filter sensor device configured to generate data reflecting a filter condition value of a filter and a geolocation circuit configured to determine a present geolocation of a vehicle. The system can also include a system control circuit configured to generate or receive local contaminant concentration values at the present geolocation, evaluate the filter sensor device data to determine at least one of the filter condition value and a change in the filter condition value, and generate at least one of a maintenance recommendation and a routing recommendation based on the local contaminant concentration values, time spent at the geolocation of the vehicle, duty cycle of the vehicle, the filter condition value, and a change in the filter condition value. Other embodiments are also included herein.
