Title:

GRID3 DRC Health Zone and Health Area Boundaries - Haut-Katanga, Kasaï, Kasaï-Oriental, Kinshasa, and Lomami Provinces, Version 01 {2022-2024}

Description:

The "GRID3 DRC Health Zone and Health Area Boundaries - Haut-Katanga, Kasaï, Kasaï-Oriental, Kinshasa, and Lomami Provinces, Version 01" dataset consists of health area boundary polygons with names and attributes in the provinces of Haut-Katanga, Kasaï, Kasaï-Oriental, Kinshasa, and Lomami in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). To conduct this work, the Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) at Columbia University engaged with the mandated authorities in the DRC’s Ministry of Health who support data collection and development for vaccination planning. Local healthcare workers were also directly involved in the mapping of the health catchment area boundaries at participatory events coordinated with in-country provincial coordinators and mappers, and in the collection of data in the field from January to July 2021. This work is part of the GRID3 Mapping for Health in the DRC project. Supported by Gavi through its INFUSE initiative, GRID3 Mapping for Health is a Ministry of Health initiative delivered in partnership with Flowminder and CIESIN (Columbia University), in collaboration with WorldPop at the University of Southampton, the Kinshasa School of Public Health, UNFPA, UNOPS, and Novel-T. GRID3 Mapping for Health is a continuation of previous work conducted and/or supported in the DRC by the Geo-Referenced Infrastructure and Demographic Data for Development (GRID3) programme. The dataset consists of one layer: health catchment area polygon data and a table with the field descriptions for the layers. Filename: GRID3_DRC_health_catchment_area_boundaries_V01.gdb The following layers are included in the gdb: GRID3_DRC_health_catchment_zone_boundaries_5_prov_V01 GRID3_DRC_health_catchment_area_boundaries_5_prov_V01 Extent: Democratic Republic of the Congo: Haut-Katanga, Kasaï, Kasaï-Oriental, Kinshasa, and Lomami provinces.
