Ahmedabad vs Wardha
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.
Wardha has more tree cover — 29.1% against 4.0%.
Ahmedabad has cleaner air right now — AQI 68 against 104.

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 Wardha 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. Wardha leads here at 29.1%.
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 68 (moderate) and Wardha reads 104 (unhealthy for sensitive groups) right now.
Frequently asked
Ahmedabad and Wardha, answered
Which has more trees, Ahmedabad or Wardha?
Wardha, with roughly 91,420 trees inside its 2 km radius against 12,127. Tree cover tells a slightly different story from raw count: Wardha has the denser canopy at 29.1%.
Which has better air quality, Ahmedabad or Wardha?
Ahmedabad right now, at AQI 68 against 104 — a gap of 36 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 Wardha about 18,535. 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.
