Tree density compared with the neighbouring buurten
The buurten in wijk Sloten/Nieuw-Sloten
Tree density index per buurt: the real number of registered trees divided by land area, rescaled against the city average. Not measured canopy cover.
Did you know? Thirty-Five Metres Deep: Sand extraction from 1956 greatly enlarged the Nieuwe Meer; it now reaches some 35 metres deep.
Our proposal for this neighborhood: Low tree density compared with the rest of the city: planting street trees would add the most shade here.
Our own suggestion, not a municipal plan - no source exists for what still ought to be built.
