Spatial Dimensions of Opioid Risk Environments: Developing Custom Access Metrics

August 25, 2021
The goal of this workshop series is to help researchers, analysts, and practitioners develop stronger spatial data analytics and visualization skills. We will introduce basic spatial analytic functionalities using open source tools, mainly in R and GeoDa, using applied examples for visualizing and mapping the opioid risk environment.
 
This workshop will teach how to conduct a nearest resource analysis for MOUD resources at the community level, calculate minimum distance access metrics, and generate maps overlaying resource locations and access metrics for further analysis.

Target Audience

The target audience for this workshop series is members of the JCOIN network, including research staff, analysts, and health and social service providers working in or researching the opioid use disorder (OUD) environment and access to medication or treatment for individuals with OUD at the national, state-wide, or local levels.

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this activity, participants will be able to:
  • Generate centroids from areal data;
  • Calculate minimum distance from resources to area centroids;
  • Generate maps in R overlaying clinics on minimum distance metric;
  • State where to find tutorials on calculating additional access metrics (i.e. travel time, count of resources).
