Instructions: 2019 RHA Atlas Indicators, Rates and Cases Mapped by District
This dashboard allows an exploration of a wide range of health indicators using age standardized rate and dot maps. Rate maps are useful for identifying populations experiencing higher risk, while dot maps provide an indication of both where and how many cases are actually occurring. It is frequently the case that high rate rates geographic areas do not contain many cases, making rate maps less useful for planning service volumes and interventions. Indicator data were derived from the 2019 MCHP RHA Atlas data extras.
Note: This dashboard currently contain data on only 6 indicators, with more to come as time and resources permit.
