Clinical Commissioning Groups (April 2017) Super Generalised Clipped Boundaries in England

Version 4 digital vector boundaries for Clinical Commissioning Groups in England correct eight LSOAs moved between NHS Norwich CCG and NHS South Norfolk CCG. The dataset, created by the Office for National Statistics, provides boundaries at five resolutions, from full to ultra generalised, clipped to the coastline.

• Map healthcare service catchment areas based on the provided vector boundaries.
• Analyze changes in CCG composition based on the documented LSOA corrections.
• Perform spatial joins with health outcome data using the super generalised (200m) boundaries for efficient processing.
• Create visualizations of CCG regions for public health reports using the multiple resolution options.

Strengths

• Provides five specific boundary resolutions with stated file sizes, from 35 MB (full) to 187 KB (ultra generalised).
