Page 16 - HEALTH GIS

 By mapping the health locations ,spatial distribution of the existing facilities will be know

 Holes where a new facility is really required can be noted

 Places where there is no need of the facility and that can be merged/shifted to other required locations,

considering the spatial location

 By studying the distance and population analysis decision to shift/merge/remove the facility can be taken

 The browser based application will facilitate the following :
 Online addition/deletion of new facility on the map

 Editing of existing facility on the map i.e altering the attribute data
 Various models of Geoprocessing analysis such as buffer and Network analysis such as shortest path
can be induced to support decision making.

 Query modules as per requirement will be introduced.

 Basic GIS functionality such as zoom in/ zoom out, pan, identify, map tips, etc will be included
 Printing the map
 Report generation (Tabular as well as chart forms alongwith the map)
 In future, layers from other themes such as roads, railway, forest, waterbodies, etc which can affect
the location of the center can also be overlayed.
 Layers from other department can also be integrated to support in decision making
