About Maps and data

Indicators are organised within the atlas by the following themes:

• Demographics
• Pregnancy and early years
• Maternity matters
• School aged children
• Young People
• Children with acute or additional health needs
• Workforce and spend
• National indicator set
• European atlas

Within each theme there are a number of Data Views. A Data View is a pre-defined collection of indicators. As well as viewing all indicators within a theme in one atlas you can choose to view just the indicators within a particular Data View (for example within demographics you can view all data or just population estimates).

If you have a suggestion for new themes or data views please let us know using the feedback form.

Using the Data Selector you can display Data Views either as tables or interactive atlases - example screens are shown below.

Table View: Provides a table view of all indicators allowing you to mix and match specific indicators of interest, sort them by a specific indicator and download either the current table view or all indicators in the Data View in different formats.

Single Map View: Provides an interactive view containing a thematic map, table and chart allowing you to understand the spatial patterns and temporal trends for a specific indicator of interest.

Double Map View: Provides an interactive view containing two thematic maps allowing you to compare patterns and corresponding relationships between two indicators for the same area type.

^new! Advanced Data Selector allows you to create a custom table or atlas composed of specific geographies and indicators of interest. The process involves a series of steps where you select:

• the area type (eg PCTs)
• the areas of interest
• the indicators of interest.
