District wise Health Facility Data

The “Jansankhya Sthirata Kosh” (JSK) (National Population Stabilization Fund) has undertaken a unique exercise with the help of National Informatics Centre to create maps which show the existence of health facilities district wise. These maps are an amalgamation of GIS maps and Census data which give a picture of each district, its sub-divisions and the location of Primary Health Centres, Sub Centres, prominent towns and urban areas. Separately for each district there is an excel sheet which gives the distance of each village in each taluka (Sub-District) from the Primary Health Center. The population of every village has been given according to Census data, using the Census Code. (The village names are therefore not in alphabetic order).
The GIS mapping and amalgamation of census data has been completed for the entire country except North Eastern states and Himachal Pradesh due to the non-availability of village level boundary data.
Cds are also available for the data, or you can log on the site and search from there.
