dc.description A 20 m spatial resolution geotiff of travel time to level III health facilities in Uganda. Level III facilities typically have Qualified nurses, Nurse aids and Clinical officers (physicians assistants) present withing them. The services that Level III facilities typically provide are; Basic laboratory services, Maternity care, Inpatient care. Hospitals have Medical Doctors, Medical Nursers and paramedical officers present and offer the following services: preventative and general medical and surgical services as well as limited specialist services. The data was generated using the Child Poverty and Access to Services (CPAS) software (10.5281/zenodo.4638563) and was created as part of the CPAS project within the Data for Children Collaborative. The travel time is calculated assuming walking speeds and has been reduced by 22% to reflect the fact that children do not walk as fast adults. A full description will be available in a paper that has been submitted for review.
