Invisible Forest — Amsterdam

A complete, per-tree leaf-area and shade inventory of Amsterdam's urban canopy, derived from the Dutch AHN5 national LiDAR survey.

🚧 Release status. This dataset card accompanies the manuscript "Per-Tree Leaf Area Index Mapping Reveals an Invisible Urban Forest and Its Unequal Shade Capacity" (under review at Nature Cities). The data files will be uploaded here upon publication. This page is documentation only for now.

What it contains

One row per detected tree across the full Amsterdam municipality — including the majority of the canopy that is absent from any municipal register. For each tree: location and crown geometry, LiDAR-derived leaf area index, crown transmissivity, registration status, and per-tree effective shade area.

Schema (per tree)

Field Description
tree_id Stable per-tree identifier
geometry Crown polygon / point (EPSG:28992, RD New)
height_m Tree height from LiDAR
crown_area_m2 Crown projected area
lai Effective plant area index (reported as LAI; see paper)
transmissivity Per-tree crown transmissivity (Beer–Lambert)
genus Genus where identified from the register
source / registered Detected, registered, or both
neighbourhood CBS neighbourhood assignment
esa Per-tree effective shade area (peak-summer date)

The authoritative field list and units will ship with the data release.

Provenance & versioning

Derived from AHN5 LiDAR and the City of Amsterdam open tree register. The shade/ESA layer and the full register re-join are versioned independently; the released files will document which pipeline version produced each column. See the paper's Methods and Supplementary Information for the canopy model, validation, and known limitations (effective-PAI vs. leaf-only offset; gross vs. net shade).

Intended uses

Urban-heat and shade-equity analysis, tree-inventory completeness studies, per-species canopy-density work, and as a benchmark for individual-tree detection from LiDAR/imagery.
