Greatest Needs Analysis

This Greatest Need Analysis project builds upon the previous work by investigating which areas currently not served within the 14.7 drive-time have the greatest need for an ambulance service. Several factors influencing the need for an additional ambulance station were identified: existing coverage area, population, DOT crash locations, ambulance runs, and proximity to existing cities. These factors of influence were imported into geographic information system (GIS) and analyzed to compare their relationship and find areas with the highest suitability (greatest need).Download Report
