Currently, the only SPA (Service Provision Assessment) surveys that have GPS data available for surveyed health facilities are Kenya 2010 and Namibia 2009. To view the full list of surveys with available GPS data, please visit http://www.measuredhs.com/data/available-datasets.cfm.

There are two important details to keep in mind when using GPS SPA data:
1. The GPS coordinates of sampled facilities are NOT displaced.
2. The GPS data only includes coordinates for the facilities sampled, not for all health facilities within a country. Please review the final report for more information on the sampling procedures.
