Land Cover Map - Malmö

Land cover was digitised and classified into paved, buildings, evergreen trees, deciduous trees, grass, bare soil and water. Two situations were defined:

  • Baseline (“before NbS”): the land cover pattern is identical to the current situation except that the area where the urban forest is now located is reverted to paved apron surface in the grid. Port buildings, water and the small existing patches of grass and trees remain unchanged.
  • Current state (“after NbS”): the urban forest planted in September 2025 is mapped as evergreen trees on the part of the apron that used to be paved.
