We present the examples of possible studies for monitoring the near Earth space using a LOFAR. LOFAR is an advanced and powerful instrument with a wide range of capabilities. It can be used for radioastronomical studies of inter alia pulsars, or Sun and solar wind, or for monitoring and diagnosing near Earth space plasma and many others. Even a single station of the LOFAR interferometer can be used as a complementary tool for the space weather studies.
