Health Landscape

HealthLandscape is an interactive web atlas that brings together various sources of health, socio-economic and environmental information in a convenient, central location.  Part of the American Academy of Family Physicians, the site makes data and mapping tools freely available to the public, with applications related to health workforce & medical education, population indicators, and community data portals . A few examples of the many tools it offers:
