JCOIN Webinar | MAARC Virtual Workshop on Spatial Dimensions of Opioid Risk Environments
The JCOIN MAARC Spatial Program at the University of Chicago recently launched the Opioid Environment Policy Scan (OEPS), a data warehouse providing access to data at multiple spatial scales (Census tract, zip code, county, state) to help characterize the multi-dimensional risk environment impacting opioid use in justice populations across the United States.
This workshop is designed to help researchers, analysts, and practitioners develop stronger spatial data analytic and visualization skills. We will introduce basic spatial analytic functionalities using open source tools, mainly in R and GeoDa, using applied examples for mapping and analyzing the opioid risk environment.
This workshop will be led by staff at the Healthy Regions & Policies Lab at the Center for Spatial Data Science at University of Chicago. Please contact Susan Paykin with any questions.
