Iceland Healthsites: Operating Health Facilities with Location Data

Global Healthsites Mapping Project compiled this dataset of operating health facilities in Iceland. The data includes attributes such as facility name, nature, activities, and geographic coordinates. It was last updated on June 11, 2026.

Use Cases

• Map healthcare service coverage based on geographic coordinates.
• Analyze the distribution of different facility types based on the nature attribute.
• Identify gaps in medical infrastructure based on facility locations and activities.

Strengths

• Includes geographic coordinates (Lat, Long) for spatial analysis.
• Attributes include facility name, nature, and activities, providing operational context.
• Data is provided in multiple geospatial formats (SHP, GEOJSON) for interoperability.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Freshness should be verified as the last update timestamp is from 2026.
