Bobruysk vs Vilnius
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.
Bobruysk has more tree cover — 49.8% against 39.7%.
Vilnius has cleaner air right now — AQI 19 against 20.

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. Vilnius is read from nearby ground stations and Bobruysk 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. Bobruysk leads here at 49.8%.
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: Bobruysk reads 20 (good) and Vilnius reads 19 (good) right now.
Frequently asked
Bobruysk and Vilnius, answered
Which has more trees, Bobruysk or Vilnius?
Bobruysk, with roughly 156,295 trees inside its 2 km radius against 122,975. Tree cover tells a slightly different story from raw count: Bobruysk has the denser canopy at 49.8%.
Which has better air quality, Bobruysk or Vilnius?
Vilnius right now, at AQI 19 against 20 — a gap of 1 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?
Bobruysk needs about 0 more to reach its canopy target, and Vilnius 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.
