What is GIS Software in Healthcare?

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are advanced computer-based platforms for collecting, managing, analysing, and visualising data tied to specific locations. In healthcare, GIS goes beyond mapping: it connects spatial data with patient, facility, and community health information to reveal patterns, relationships, and trends that traditional spreadsheets or reports can't show.

With Maptitude, healthcare organisations use GIS to:

  • Map and analyse patient distribution to optimise clinic locations, mobile unit deployment, or outreach programs.
  • Visualise health disparities by combining demographic, environmental, and socioeconomic datasets with epidemiological records.
  • Support research by identifying geographic factors influencing disease incidence, outcomes, or service accessibility.
  • Plan resource allocation for emergency response, vaccination campaigns, or disaster preparedness.
  • Drive business development for healthcare providers, insurers, and pharmaceutical companies through market analysis and territory planning.

By integrating multiple datasets into one interactive environment, GIS empowers decision-makers to pinpoint underserved areas, track the spread of diseases, evaluate intervention strategies, and forecast future needs. Whether for public health research, operational efficiency, or strategic growth, Maptitude provides the tools to turn raw location data into actionable insights that improve health outcomes and optimise organisational performance.

Key Applications of GIS in Healthcare

  • Enhanced Decision-Making: Delivers actionable insights and visualisations beyond traditional spreadsheets.
  • Improved Health Planning and Resource Allocation: Identifies underserved areas and directs resources efficiently.
  • Spatial Pattern Analysis: Reveals trends and relationships not visible in standard data tables.
  • Disease Surveillance and Outbreak Management: Tracks disease spread, identifies hotspots, and analyses patterns.
  • Healthcare Planning and Resource Allocation: Helps choose optimal hospital and clinic sites and improves vaccine and supply distribution.
  • Public Health Research and Epidemiology: Combines demographics, health metrics, and environmental data to assess interventions and find vulnerable communities.
  • Environmental Health Monitoring: Links air, water, and climate data to health outcomes for targeted interventions.
  • Emergency Response and Preparedness: Models disasters or outbreaks, plans evacuations, and deploys services effectively.
  • Public Awareness and Education: Uses visual maps to simplify complex health data and encourage healthy behaviours.

Research and Public Health Insights with Maptitude

The dynamics of health and health care provision vary substantially across regions, and Maptitude allows you to map these differences in population density, age distribution, disease prevalence, race, ethnicity, poverty and the ability to access care. Maptitude includes the geocoding and geographic information system (GIS) tools that are critical in linking patient and population locations to local demographics to explore these relationships.

Create epidemiology maps and find geographic patterns in your data.

Wide use of the Maptitude GIS in health care supports research in the fields of public health, disease mapping, and epidemiology. Maps help to visualise health care information and enhance the understanding of the health care landscape. Maptitude mapping software enables users to find data about hospitals, health workers, at risk populations, and more:

  • Map specific health variables
  • Understand the overall health and morbidity of a population
  • Look for clustering or locally elevated risks
  • Analyse health care coverage to identify gaps or inefficiencies
  • Examine patterns of health care utilisation and/or access to care
  • Match a network of health care specialists and providers to the needs of the population
  • Offer members, patients, and others "provider-locator" applications to help locate and select health care providers
  • Choose optimal locations for new hospitals, outpatient clinics, or offices
  • Deliver in-home medical services more efficiently

Mapping Doctor, Patient, and Provider Locations

Maptitude healthcare GIS software makes it easy to use maps to analyse and understand the locations of doctors and patients, and can help explore the best location for a new clinic or office. Maptitude is a powerful combination of mapping software and geographic data that provides everything that you need to make informed decisions. Maptitude can help answer questions such as "Where Are My Patients?", while Maptitude Online can provide a browser-based portal to allow the public to find their doctor, find the closest doctor, and to find the right doctor for their needs.

In addition to the latest demographics, Maptitude includes substantial social, housing, and income data, along with easy-to-use analysis tools that will allow you to better understand the relationships between the demand and supply of medical services. For example, the Maptitude United Kingdom Country Package (available FREE with a Maptitude purchase or upgrade) includes comprehensive hospital locations and demographic data describing population, age distribution, income, level of education, and employment. These data provide a complete framework for exploring care provider locations.

As costs of delivering health care continue to rise, providers and administrators must do all they can to maximise efficiency and minimise waste. Using the location-based data and tools in Maptitude, health care planners can select optimal sites to best serve patient populations, achieve equitable service provision, and maximise access to health care.

Managed Care Network Territories

Maptitude can help to reduce unnecessary health care related costs and supports location-based decisions for health care services, network expansion, regulatory reporting and risk management.

Maptitude is used in the assessment of unmet health needs which provide a basis for addressing the requirements of a hospital's implementation strategies (community benefit plan), ensuring it is aligned with community needs (see an example case study here).

Many health care organisations and pharmaceutical companies use Maptitude for target marketing, management, and territory planning. For example, using the Maptitude GIS, medical supplies and equipment can be visually located and inventoried. Linking the physical location and condition of equipment or supplies in a large facility or distributed medical campus is a powerful management tool.

Perform United Kingdom hospital mapping and create health care territories

Perform hospital mapping, create territories based on drive-time or distance, look for gaps in service, and visualise service areas and overlap.

Maptitude mapping software gives you a suite of tools for defining care network service areas and for address/postal geocoding and validation. Unlike many other mapping and GIS software that require users to purchase data separately, Maptitude includes extensive geographic and demographic data so that you can get started fine-tuning health care networks as soon as you install the software.
