Quantifying Travel Time, Mapping and Validating Health Facility Catchment Areas in Blantyre, Malawi

2023-11-25

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Mapping health facility catchment areas is important for estimating the population that uses the health facility, as a denominator for capturing spatial patterns of disease burden across space. Mapping activities to generate catchment areas are expensive exercises and are often not repeated on a regular basis. In this work, we demonstrated the generation of facility catchment areas in B...
