Ahmedabad vs Beāwar

Tree cover and air quality for both, measured the same way: Sentinel-2 imagery at 10 m detail over a 2 km radius from each city centre, and the live US EPA air quality index. Same radius and same index, so the two numbers compare directly.

Beāwar has more tree cover — 30.2% against 4.0%.

Ahmedabad has cleaner air right now — AQI 34 against 71.

Air quality in detail

What each city is breathing

Concentrations in µg/m³, measured at the same moment as the index above. Lower is better in every row. Ahmedabad is read from nearby ground stations and Beāwar is modelled — worth knowing, since the two are not quite like for like.

Reading these numbers

What is actually being measured

Tree cover

The share of ground under canopy inside a 2 km radius of each city centre, read from Sentinel-2 satellite imagery at 10 m detail. It is a measurement of that circle, not of the whole municipality — which is exactly what makes the two comparable, since city boundaries are drawn to wildly different rules around the world. Beāwar leads here at 30.2%.

Air quality index

The live US EPA index, computed from current pollutant concentrations — ground stations where a city has them nearby, and a model everywhere else. It moves hour to hour, so this is a snapshot rather than a verdict on either place: Ahmedabad reads 34 (good) and Beāwar reads 71 (moderate) right now.

Frequently asked

Ahmedabad and Beāwar, answered

Which has more trees, Ahmedabad or Beāwar?

Beāwar, with roughly 93,832 trees inside its 2 km radius against 12,127. Tree cover tells a slightly different story from raw count: Beāwar has the denser canopy at 30.2%.

Which has better air quality, Ahmedabad or Beāwar?

Ahmedabad right now, at AQI 34 against 71 — a gap of 37 points. This is a live reading rather than an annual average, so it can reverse within a day.

How many more trees does each city need?

Ahmedabad needs about 78,823 more to reach its canopy target, and Beāwar about 0. The target is the same share of ground for both, so the figures are directly comparable.

Are these two measured the same way?

Yes — that is the point of the page. Identical radius, identical satellite source at 10 m detail, and the same US EPA index for air. Nothing here is adjusted for population, city limits or climate, so the numbers describe the same-sized circle of ground in each place.
