The Same Metrics, at Native Grid Resolution

Four of the six regime-level metrics are grid-native and average cleanly: Shannon Diversity, Built-up Patch Density, Built-up Aggregation Index, and Vegetation Cohesion, plus Edge Density — each computed per cell directly from that cell's own cropped raster. (Largest Patch Index is deliberately excluded here: it's scale-dependent and only meaningful at the full regime scale — see the regime-level monitor for it.)

South City's regime-level Patch Density in 2015 was a single number: 17.49. At grid resolution, the cells that make up South City range from 3.96 to over 2,000 — most of that range compressed into a modest, informative spread, with a handful of extreme values coming from tiny boundary-sliver cells where a small denominator inflates a density metric (a classic modifiable-areal-unit effect, not a real fragmentation signal). The interactive map's quantile-based color scale is robust to those outliers; hovering an individual cell shows its exact value regardless.

The citywide mean confirms the same story the regime view told — fragmentation rising through ~2015–2020, then predicted to consolidate — but every cell behind that mean is now individually inspectable on the map, rather than folded into one of five regime numbers.
