How much forest has Rāmpur lost?
There was very little forest around Rāmpur in 2000, about 54 hectares, and about 5 hectares of it has been lost since. Only fairly dense woodland counts as forest in these maps, so scattered street and garden trees don't show up here.

The worst year was 2001, when about 1 hectare of forest were lost.

Comparing satellite maps from 2000 and 2020, the forest around Rāmpur grew from about 1,220 hectares to 1,500 hectares, a net gain of about 280 hectares (+23%). New forest grew on about 298 hectares, while 19 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 Rāmpur
What is the air quality (AQI) in Rāmpur right now?
The latest reading for Rāmpur shows an AQI of 104 (Unhealthy for sensitive groups), observed Nov 10, 19:30 local time via Open-Meteo / CAMS, corrected with 30 ground-station cities within 205 km, US EPA index. The main pollutant is PM2.5. Sensitive groups should limit long or intense outdoor activity.
Is it safe to exercise outside in Rāmpur today?
At AQI 104 (Unhealthy for sensitive groups): children, older adults and people with asthma or heart disease should cut down long or hard exercise. Windows: close them to keep the outside air out. Masks: sensitive groups: an N95 outdoors. The reading changes through the day, so check again before a long run or ride.
What has the air quality in Rāmpur been like this week?
Over the last 7 days, the CAMS air-quality model put Rāmpur's daily AQI at 158 on average, from 122 on Nov 10 to an hourly peak of 203 on Nov 5. On 7 of those days the average was above 100, unhealthy for sensitive groups.
Is Rāmpur'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 Rāmpur lost since 2001?
There was very little forest around Rāmpur in 2000, about 54 hectares, and about 5 hectares of it has been lost 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 Rāmpur grew from about 1,220 hectares to 1,500 hectares, a net gain of about 280 hectares (+23%). New forest grew on about 298 hectares, while 19 hectares were lost.
What is the tree count in Rāmpur?
Rāmpur has an estimated 75,722 trees across the 12.52 km² of land measured — 24.2% tree cover, 11 percentage points short of the 35% tree-cover target set for this area.
How many more trees does Rāmpur need?
Rāmpur needs roughly 33,793 more trees to close a 11-point shortfall against its 35% tree-cover target — about 743.4 t of extra CO₂ absorbed per year once grown.
How are Rāmpur'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 Mazar Chup Shah Mian; the tree count is an estimate derived from that cover.
