Birendranagar vs Etāwah
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.
Birendranagar has more tree cover — 66.7% against 42.8%.
Birendranagar has cleaner air right now — AQI 56 against 93.

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. Birendranagar is read from nearby ground stations and Etāwah 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. Birendranagar leads here at 66.7%.
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: Birendranagar reads 56 (moderate) and Etāwah reads 93 (moderate) right now.
Frequently asked
Birendranagar and Etāwah, answered
Which has more trees, Birendranagar or Etāwah?
Birendranagar, with roughly 209,544 trees inside its 2 km radius against 134,460. Tree cover tells a slightly different story from raw count: Birendranagar has the denser canopy at 66.7%.
Which has better air quality, Birendranagar or Etāwah?
Birendranagar right now, at AQI 56 against 93 — 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?
Birendranagar needs about 0 more to reach its canopy target, and Etāwah 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.
