[OSGeo Africa] Health Care Facilities

[Suzi Crossley]

Hello Calle 

 

Thanks for responding - more looking at clinics and hospitals.  But any data
would be good as I can then assemble and share for all

Suzi,

Depends on your specific requirements:

1. Are you looking for public sector facilities or private for-profit
facilities or private/NGO not-for-profit facilities or all three?

2. What's you accuracy requirements? Or to say it differently, can you live
with a small sub-set of facilities having approximated co-ordinates that
were either collected in the mid-90's (i.e. probably using the Cape Datum)
scaled off maps?

Regards
Calle

Hello All

Does anyone know of OS data for all the healthcare facilities, clinics,
hospitals etc in SA?  Or even just the EC for now?




 

You can ask Mark Herringer who has being building konekta
(http://www.konekta.info/) a site to map health care facilities (globally).
I dont think he has by any means a comprehensive database yet but he would
be very interested to collaborate or hear from anyone who can point him
along his path. The data is all free (ultimately it will make its way into
OSM).

 

His address is mark at konekta.info 

 

 

Regards

 

Tim
