Dear Pete,

Thanks for the suggestion but I was thinking more on the lines of using something like http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Using_OpenStreetMap etc and looking for some suggestions/guides rather than buying a £600 close source product.

Best wishes,

Andrew

If you use Arc Geographical Information System software  you can do it.

You can import the data and cross reference it with postcodes or some other key.

Have you seen it?. Costs about £600, I think. Current version 9.1, about to be upgraded to 10.1. Takes a while to learn how to do it, but you can teach yourself, like I did- there are on-line tutorials from ESRI, the american company that makes it

Best wishes

Subject: [mySociety:public] Is there a simple way of mapping these health stats for uk? A website which takes the data and maps it?


Dear all,

Recently, I came across this fantastic source of information about public health from the UK Government (called Public Health Outcomes Framework: http://www.phoutcomes.info)

Separately, I also notice this shaded map giving a pictorial representation for one of the indicators of health re. mental health: at this site http://www.nepho.org.uk/cmhp/

Is there a simple way to take the data from the http://www.phoutcomes.info site and then for any of the health indicators to produce a shaded map as shown for mental health above? (Incidentally, I'm most interested in air quality/air pollution shown at http://www.phoutcomes.info/public-health-outcomes-framework/domain/4 as '3.01 - Fraction of mortality attributable to particulate air pollution')

I can't see this option of pictorial map representation on the http://www.phoutcomes.info site. Still, really great resource! Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Andrew Wood
