About this dataset

Indicator values by sub-national level from The Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) Program, covering 82 countries. Includes child nutrition, child mortality, fertility, family planning, vaccination, HIV, education and other indicators, with the boundaries of each survey region. Data source : The DHS Program Spatial Data Repository **Data publication:** 2026-10-19 **Supplemental Information:** All data is from The Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) Program, which conducts nationally representative population-based surveys. These surveys are representative at the sub-national level (generally, 1st administrative level). However, in some cases the sampling frame combines two or more 1st administrative areas or includes major cities as separate regions. The DHS region boundaries are created on a survey-specific basis to correspond to the sampled areas of the survey, therefore the boundaries may not correspond to the Administrative1 or other official administrative boundaries of a country. Geographic coverage : Subnational (DHS Survey regions) - 82 countries. Update frequency : Single ingestion **Contact points:** Metadata Contact: [DHS program](mailto:spatialdata@dhsprogram.com) **Data lineage:** Downloaded from the DHS Program Spatial Data Repository and published as provided by the source, without modifications. Known limitations : Each country is covered by a single survey round. Region boundaries may not correspond to official administrative boundaries. Not all indicators are available for all surveys. **Resource constraints:** This work is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence (CC-BY-4.0) **Online resources:**

Harmonized Food Insecurity Dataset (HFID)

The Harmonized Food Insecurity Dataset (HFID) is an open-source resource consolidating four key data sources: the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC)/Cadre Harmonisé (CH) phases, the Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET) IPC-compatible phases, and the World Food Program’s (WFP) Food Consumption Score (FCS) and reduced Coping Strategy Index (rCSI). Updated monthly and using a common reference system for administrative units, the HFID provides comprehensive spatial and temporal coverage to the extent permitted by the available data. It serves as a vital tool for food insecurity experts and humanitarian agencies, providing a unified resource for analyzing food insecurity conditions and highlighting global data disparities and gaps. The scientific community can also leverage the HFID to develop data-driven predictive models, enhancing the capacity to forecast and prevent future food crises. This dataset is the first static version created and openly shared to accompany the publication of the paper "A monthly sub-national Harmonized Food Insecurity Dataset for comprehensive analysis and predictive modeling". It includes data from 2007 until 2024. A dynamic dataset, updated monthly with all of the above indicators will be shared on HDX as medium-term objective.

Namibia Walking Travel Time to nearest Level IV health centre

A 100 m spatial resolution geotiff of walking travel time in seconds to nearest health facility in Namibia. The data was generated using the Child Poverty and Access to Services (CPAS) software (10.5281/zenodo.4638563) and was created as part of the CPAS project within the Data for Children Collaborative. The travel time is calculated assuming walking speeds on all roads, tracks, paths and land cover types.

Namibia Motorised Travel Time (in seconds) to nearest health centre

A 100 m spatial resolution geotiff of motorised travel time in seconds to nearest health facility in Namibia. The data was generated using the Child Poverty and Access to Services (CPAS) software (10.5281/zenodo.4638563) and was created as part of the CPAS project within the Data for Children Collaborative. The travel time is calculated assuming driving speeds of local public transport options on all-weather roads/asphalt roads and walking speeds on all other roads, tracks, paths and land cover types.

Health facilities: hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, doctors, and dentists tagged via `amenity` or `healthcare`. Useful for service-access analysis, emergency response, and healthcare gap mapping. Coverage reflects where volunteer mappers have been active. Urban areas are usually well represented, remote areas may be sparse. Cross-check critical decisions with local field knowledge. - Source: OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map - Tags: amenity, healthcare - Part of the country exports on HDX by HOT
