- Download OSM data from geofabrik.de for a given country, i.e. roads, paths, and transport-related points of interest (train & bus stations).
- Download Land Cover data from Global Land Cover. NB: Data may be downloaded per tile (e.g. 13 tiles are needed to cover Africa).
- Download topographic data from SRTM. NB: The python module elevation can be used to automatically download SRTM data for a given area of interest.
- Download water data from Global Surface Water Explorer. A script is provided by the authors for automatic downloading (see here).
- Get health facilities from Bluesquare.
- Get the snapshot of OSM data corresponding to the period of interest.
- Extract roads & other transport networks with all the relevant attributes.
- Assign a travel speed for each road segment based on their attributes and--if necessary--on seasonnal, topographic or land cover information.
- Convert geometries to a raster file (50m, 100m?) with cell values equal to travel speed.
- Clip & reproject input land cover data.
- Reclassify land cover legend into categories that are relevant to travel speed.
- Assign a travel speed to each land cover category.
- Convert to a raster file with cell values equal to travel speed.
- Clip & reproject input water data.
- Get the snapshot corresponding to the period of interest.
- Reclassify legend into categories that are relevant to travel speed.
- Assign a travel speed to each category.
- Clip & reproject input elevation data.
- Compute slope and aspect from digital elevation model.
- Clip & reproject input population data.
- Create a final raster with cell values corresponding to travel speed.
- Compute the friction raster.
- Least-cost modeling.
- Travel time to nearest health facility.
- ...depending on the health facility and the services they provide.
- ...depending on the transport mode (car, pedestrian, etc.)
- Population without access to any health facility in less than m minutes.
- ...depending on the population characteristics and the services provided by the health facilities.
- Some input variables are time-sensitive: transport network (was the road segment available in the OSM database at a given date?), water (seasonnality is taken into account in the Global Surface Water product). Furthermore, travel speeds in a given land cover may also be affected by seasonnal variations.
- Spatial resolution: 50m or 100m ?
- How do we integrate the temporal dimension ?
- By building one model for each month ?
- By building one model for each season ?
- By building a model for a given date ?
- Metrics & visualization
