Fukushima Prefecture, municipalities in the affected areas, and various other public and private organizations have been monitoring this from practically the beginning. The problem is, most of the materials are in Japanese. However, you can get the airborne radiation levels for monthly averages converted into hourly readings for Fukushima Prefecture from this web site. The latest information is the default, but you can go back all the way to March 2011 by clicking on the upside-down triangle underneath the map scale. The red dots show the locations with the highest radiation readings, while the blue dots show the lowest readings (in microsieverts per hour). Click the 全データ button just above and to the right of the directional indicator to show all the data.
