How much forest has Bhind lost?
There was almost no forest around Bhind in 2000, so there has been almost nothing to lose since. Only fairly dense woodland counts as forest in these maps, so scattered street and garden trees don't show up here.

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.

Frequently asked
Questions about Bhind
What is the air quality (AQI) in Bhind right now?
The latest reading for Bhind shows an AQI of 473 (Hazardous), observed Nov 11, 09:30 local time via Open-Meteo / CAMS, corrected with 2 ground-station cities within 85 km, US EPA index. The main pollutant is PM2.5. Emergency conditions — avoid outdoor activity.
Is it safe to exercise outside in Bhind today?
At AQI 473 (Hazardous): everyone should avoid all outdoor exertion. Windows: keep them closed and seal gaps. Masks: wear an N95 if you must go out. The reading changes through the day, so check again before a long run or ride.
What has the air quality in Bhind been like this week?
Over the last 7 days, the CAMS air-quality model put Bhind's daily AQI at 187 on average, from 163 on Nov 9 to an hourly peak of 229 on Nov 6. On 7 of those days the average was above 100, unhealthy for sensitive groups.
Is Bhind's AQI the same as India's AQI (CPCB)?
No. Airleaf shows the US EPA Air Quality Index (AQI), the scale used by IQAir and most air-quality apps. India's Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) publishes the National Air Quality Index on its own scale: 0–50 good, 51–100 satisfactory, 101–200 moderate, 201–300 poor, 301–400 very poor and 401–500 severe. The two scales don't line up. At moderate fine-particle levels the US scale reads higher: 55 µg/m³ of PM2.5 is 149 on the US AQI but about 92, "satisfactory", on India's. In heavy smog India's reads higher: 100 µg/m³ is 182 on the US AQI and about 232, "poor", on India's. CPCB also averages particles over 24 hours, so its figure moves more slowly than an hourly reading.
How much forest has the area around Bhind lost since 2001?
There was almost no forest around Bhind in 2000, so there has been almost nothing to lose since. Only fairly dense woodland counts as forest in these maps, so scattered street and garden trees don't show up here.
What is the tree count in Bhind?
Bhind has an estimated 57,177 trees across the 12.57 km² measured — 18.2% tree cover, 27 percentage points short of the 45% tree-cover target set for this area.
How many more trees does Bhind need?
Bhind needs roughly 84,195 more trees to close a 27-point shortfall against its 45% tree-cover target — about 1,852 t of extra CO₂ absorbed per year once grown.
How are Bhind'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 Mahveer Ganj; the tree count is an estimate derived from that cover.
