South African Hospitals Survey 2011-2012 Voronoi map

A Voronoi map of South African hospitals, clinics, and other health care centres. Coordinates obtained from the South African Hospitals Survey 2011-2012.

If you want to understand the basics of how this works, I suggest reading Chris Zetter's blog post which I used to create this map.

Contribute

Contribution are extremely welcome. There are many ways this tool can be improved:

• Add a search box so users can search by address
• Use a more recent dataset
• Use a more complete dataset which includes non-public facilities, which I believe are (mostly) missing
• Clean up the current dataset - a few facilities are in the ocean, Lesotho, Swaziland
• Add data to the current dataset - many facilities don't have a phone number, properly formatted physical address, email address, etc
