Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Bandar Lampung shrank from about 15,700 hectares to 14,900 hectares, a net loss of about 834 hectares (−5.3%). New forest grew on about 285 hectares, but 1,120 hectares were lost.
These 2000 and 2020 maps, from the University of Maryland, count any land with trees taller than 5 m as forest, including plantations and orchards. Forest that was cut or burned and had grown back by 2020 counts in both years, so the loss here is smaller than the yearly figures.
These figures cover everything within 10 km of the city center, a wider area than the report above, because forest is usually lost at a city's edges.

Is it safe to exercise outside in Bandar Lampung today?
At AQI 47 (Good): a good day to be active outside. Windows: open them to air the house. Masks: not needed. The reading changes through the day, so check again before a long run or ride.
What has the air quality in Bandar Lampung been like this week?
Over the last 7 days, the CAMS air-quality model put Bandar Lampung's daily AQI at 69 on average, from 58 on Nov 11 to an hourly peak of 104 on Nov 5. No day averaged above 100, the level where the air turns unhealthy for sensitive groups.
Is Bandar Lampung's AQI the same as Indonesia's ISPU?
No. Airleaf shows the US EPA Air Quality Index (AQI), the scale used by IQAir and most air-quality apps. Indonesia's official index is the ISPU (Indeks Standar Pencemar Udara), published by the environment ministry from its own monitoring stations. Its bands are 0–50 Baik (good), 51–100 Sedang (moderate), 101–200 Tidak Sehat (unhealthy), 201–300 Sangat Tidak Sehat (very unhealthy) and over 300 Berbahaya (hazardous). The two indexes use different breakpoints and averaging times, so the same air can score differently on each.
How much forest has the area around Bandar Lampung lost since 2001?
Since 2001, the area within 10 km of Bandar Lampung has lost about 1,360 hectares of forest (about 1,900 football pitches): 11% of the forest it had in 2000.

What is the tree count in Bandar Lampung?
Bandar Lampung has an estimated 76,655 trees across the 12.57 km² measured — 24.4% tree cover, 6 percentage points short of the 30% tree-cover target set for this area.
How many more trees does Bandar Lampung need?
Bandar Lampung needs roughly 17,593 more trees to close a 6-point shortfall against its 30% tree-cover target — about 387.0 t of extra CO₂ absorbed per year once grown.
How are Bandar Lampung's air quality and tree cover measured?
Air quality comes from ground monitoring stations via OpenAQ where one reports nearby, and otherwise, as here, from the Open-Meteo / CAMS model, which may differ from street-level monitors. Tree cover is measured from Sentinel-2 L2A (ESA Copernicus) via Earth Search satellite imagery at 10 m detail across a 2 km radius around Bandar Lampung; the tree count is an estimate derived from that cover.
