This data provides the Local Health Unit information for the State of Arkansas to track disease related data in a mapping environment, and to do so in a way that electronic map information can be transmitted quickly and efficiently to those in the public health network. The database provides location information for use in local and regional cartographic and spatial analysis applications. It is the intention of the Arkansas Geographic Information Systems Board to facilitate dissemination of public data.
Data available online through the Arkansas Spatial Data Infrastructure (ASDI) at http://gis.arkansas.gov. This dataset contains points which represent the locations of all Local Health Units in the State of Arkansas. The compilation of this data is a collaborative effort between the Arkansas Geographic Information Systems Office and the Arkansas Department of Health (ADH) to build a comprehensive geographic database of Local Health Units as a component of the National Electronic Disease Surveillance System (NEDSS). The Local Health Units form a sub-component of the existing CDC Bioterrorism plan that involves the visualization application for disease detection and surveillance. A visual aid of health unit locations overlaid on current digital aerial photography, associated road names, and landmarks, were produced to representatives of ADH to confirm the accuracy of the location.
