Clinical Commissioning Groups Boundaries in England, July 2015

July 2015 digital vector boundaries for clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) in England, provided by the Office for National Statistics. The dataset contains five boundary versions at different resolutions and file sizes, from a 32 MB full-extent file to a 184 KB ultra-generalised version. Boundaries are coterminous with Lower Layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs).

Use Cases

• Mapping health service catchment areas based on the provided vector boundaries.
• Analyzing boundary coterminosity with Lower Layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs) as mentioned in the description.
• Creating visualizations at different scales using the generalised (20m, 200m, 500m) boundary versions.
• Integrating geographic data with health statistics using the CCG spatial framework.

Strengths

• Provides five specific boundary versions with stated file sizes (e.g., 32 MB full-extent, 184 KB ultra-generalised).
• Boundaries are explicitly coterminous with Lower Layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs).
• Contains intellectual property rights from both Ordnance Survey and the Office for National Statistics.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data is from July 2015; administrative boundaries may have changed since then.
