Data Access & Tools

Geolocation Data

Geolocation Data
The geolocation feature in DataDirect links National Neighborhood Data Archive (NaNDA) data to a Michigan Medicine patient’s Electronic Health Record (EHR). Patient addresses (current and historical) are mapped to a US Census block group and tract, which in turn can be mapped to various data elements describing respective neighborhoods and geographies.

All indices in green have been deidentified/date-shifted, while the rest will need full IRB approval because they contain identifiers.
