HHSA Region Map

Maps and Spatial Data

The Community Health Statistics Unit utilizes geographic information systems as a way to help planners, community partners, and the public visualize a variety of data spatially. 

*Note: Map above depicts our Health and Human Services Agency regions, one of the many geographic boundaries we depict data in.

Disease and Injury Atlases

These atlases show rates of disease and injury mapped by community (Sub-regional Area, SRA) for all residents by medical outcome or death.* Indicators include non-communicable (chronic) disease, communicable disease, injury, and behavioral health conditions. Where available, maps by race-ethnicity and age group are included. 

* Atlases may include rates of death, emergency department discharge, hospitalization, and in-patient treatment.

TIMS

Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS)

TIMS is a web-based data query and download application developed to display pin maps in Google Maps, using the California Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) collision data. A second application was designed and applied to provide a more map-centric experience with other types of data layers and spatial analysis capabilities typically seen in a Geographic Information System (GIS), which is all available to the public.
