Unit 3 Representing healthcare provision

This unit looks at the issues involved in representing healthcare provision and particularly healthcare facilities in a GIS.  Whilst this might seem straightforward and that facilities can be represented as a point vector layer, there are some complexities to doing this, and there are particular groups of attribute fields associated with facilities.  In this unit, we therefore look at:

  1. representing healthcare locations
  2. mapping facility catchments
  3. healthcare records and attributes commonly attached to facilities
  4. representation of mobile facilities and telemedicine
