Multiple sourcesThis master list of health facilities was developed from a variety of government and non-government sources from 50 countries in sub-Saharan Africa. It uses multiple geocoding methods to provide a comprehensive spatial inventory of 98 745 public health facilities. Each data record represents a health facility and has 8 descriptive variables - Location identifiers including: country, first level administrative division, latitude, longitude and LL source (source of the coordinates). Coordinates are rounded off to four decimal places for uniformity, allowing an accuracy of 5-10 metres in decimal degrees coordinate format. This geocoded master facility list has been made publicly and freely available through both the [figshare repository](https://ndownloader.figshare.com/files/14379593) and through the [World Health Organization's Global Malaria Programme](https://www.who.int/teams/global-malaria-programme) in Microsoft Excel format.health-facilities-in-sub-saharan-africaHumanitarian Data ExchangePublicHealth Facilities in Sub-Saharan AfricaDatasetsAngolaBeninBotswanaBurkina FasoBurundiCameroonCentral African RepublicChadComorosCongoCôte d'IvoireDemocratic Republic of the CongoDjiboutiEquatorial GuineaEritreaEswatiniEthiopiaGabonGambiaGhanaGuineaGuinea-BissauKenyaLesothoLiberiaMadagascarMalawiMaliMauritaniaMauritiusNamibiaNigerNigeriaRwandaSao Tome and PrincipeSenegalSeychellesSierra LeoneSomaliaSouth AfricaSouth SudanSudanTogoUgandaUnited Republic of TanzaniaZambiaZimbabwe2019-07-25
