10 Industry Perspective Insights for ArcGIS has the ability to answer questions you didn't know to ask. In this example, you can see over dose incidence, gaps in services, higher overdoses by day, and understand what the largest community profile is in order to know how to best commun icate and respond. Develop Targeted and Collaborative Intervention Strategy Once gaps have been identified and you have a better understanding of the community, you will want to decide where to either place new resources or identify partners within the community to connect with. Using GIS, you can take the areas that have gaps, add criteria (like overdose data) and demographic data, and identify an area to place the resource that best fits your criteria. So what's next? After analysis uncovers an access issue, a community needs to take the next step to solve the underlying problems. Most teams have multiple people working on these issues, and ArcGIS fosters collaboration by allowing individuals to share the data with other stakeholders. There are aspects of health inequity in every community, and some of these issues could be addressed with the use of spatial exploration and analysis. These issues are impacting all different aspects of the community and not just one targeted demographic. Fortunately, ArcGIS is on the rise with agencies and health organizations. The use of GIS is becoming more predominant given the different data sets organizations need to use and integrate in order to analyze these underlying problems. GIS allows you to bridge knowledge gaps and explore data patterns and trends. And with access to geospatial content from HERE means ArcGIS users can create new and innovative solutions to meet their biggest challenges. ArcGIS Community Analyst can help optimize your resource allocation decisions. Within this example, you can see the areas that have been identified that have gaps and also where possible resources could be placed based off of the analysis.
