Monitor and analyze data to reveal insights about inequities in poverty, age, living conditions, and education.
Solving community health disparities starts with making data-driven decisions. Using demographic, socioeconomic, and lifestyle data, you can build a more complete picture of your community, understand health-care disparities, analyze public health trends, and prepare for future needs.

GIS empowers each department to set benchmarks and mobilize resources. Location-based equity solutions allow each department to pinpoint and implement concentrated efforts.
