The purpose of this study is to develop a quick method for estimation of $^{131}$ I concentrations in the air using data measured by monitoring posts. In this method, $^{131}$ I concentrations were estimated by multiplying $^{131}$ I count rates at the full-energy peak measured with a NaI(Tl) detector by a concentration conversion factor. The concentration conversion factor for monitoring posts in JAEA Oarai Center was calculated with an EGS5 Monte Carlo code. As a result, the concentration conversion factor for an infinite-air-source was 25.7 Bq/m $^{3}$ /cps.
