We use SparkMap data for courses in community nutrition. We are currently teaching an Advanced Community Nutrition course in our online MS Clinical Nutrition program. Students can go through a case study using SparkMap data tools and addressing nutrition needs for the diabetic in the community.

I use SparkMap to create [Community Needs] Assessment Reports that contain a wide array of indicators related to demographics, socioeconomics, health behaviors, and health outcomes for a specific geographic area. I’ve used these assessment reports as a major resource for our CHNAs since they contain nearly all areas that we are required to report on and more. The SparkMap tool is a huge time saver since I no longer have to go to each individual data source to find what I need as they are already loaded and included in the assessment reports!
