How much forest has Pātan lost?
There was almost no forest around Pātan 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
- 56 ha
- Forest in 2020

- Overall change
- +66 hamore forest than in 2000
Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Pātan grew from about 56 hectares to 122 hectares, a net gain of about 66 hectares. New forest grew on about 71 hectares, while 5 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.

Frequently asked
Questions about Pātan
What is the air quality (AQI) in Pātan right now?
The latest reading for Pātan shows an AQI of 49 (Good), observed Nov 11, 10:30 local time via Open-Meteo / CAMS, corrected with 2 ground-station cities within 85 km, US EPA index. The main pollutant is PM2.5. Air quality is satisfactory for everyone.
Is it safe to exercise outside in Pātan today?
At AQI 49 (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 Pātan been like this week?
Over the last 7 days, the CAMS air-quality model put Pātan's daily AQI at 64 on average, from 55 on Nov 10 to an hourly peak of 92 on Nov 5. No day averaged above 100, the level where the air turns unhealthy for sensitive groups.
Is Pātan'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 Pātan lost since 2001?
There was almost no forest around Pātan 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. Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Pātan grew from about 56 hectares to 122 hectares, a net gain of about 66 hectares. New forest grew on about 71 hectares, while 5 hectares were lost.
What is the tree count in Pātan?
Pātan has an estimated 49,323 trees across the 12.57 km² measured — 15.7% tree cover, 14 percentage points short of the 30% tree-cover target set for this area.
How many more trees does Pātan need?
Pātan needs roughly 44,925 more trees to close a 14-point shortfall against its 30% tree-cover target — about 988.4 t of extra CO₂ absorbed per year once grown.
How are Pātan'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 VTC Patan; the tree count is an estimate derived from that cover.
