How much forest has Myingyan lost?

There was almost no forest around Myingyan 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.

Forest in 2000
1,410 ha
Forest in 2020
1,660 ha
Overall change
+252 hamore forest than in 2000

Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Myingyan grew from about 1,410 hectares to 1,660 hectares, a net gain of about 252 hectares (+18%). New forest grew on about 252 hectares, while under 1 hectare was 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.

What is the tree count in Myingyan?

Myingyan has an estimated 167,666 trees across the 4.8 sq mi (12.47 km²) of land measured — 53.8% tree cover, already past the 30% tree-cover target set for this area.

How many more trees does Myingyan need?

Myingyan has already reached its tree-cover target, so no additional trees are needed to close the gap.

How are Myingyan'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 1.2 mi (2 km) radius around Myingyan; the tree count is an estimate derived from that cover.
