A Data-Driven Approach to Quantifying Perceptions of Drivers in Kenyan Health Care Quality

The purpose of this research is to examine the Kenyan health workforce and cross-cultural perceptions of four key factors related to health care access in Kenya on a sub-national county level. These factors are government health funding per capita, quantity of health professionals per person, number of health facilities per person, and average travel time to health facilities. The perceptions of different survey populations, well-educated Kenyan citizens and American professionals, were used to quantify the weight of importance for each factor. The resulting analysis exemplifies the similarities and variations in perceptions on influencing factors in Kenyan healthcare delivery. This is prompted by an effort to quantify and evaluate the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goal 3.C, Substantially increase health financing and the recruitment, development, training and retention of the health workforce in developing countries, especially in least developed countries and small island developing States (UN General Assembly, 2015). Results of the analysis, utilizing survey research methodology, rasterized drive-time analysis, and the Analytical Hierarchy Process among other techniques, indicate that priorities for American professionals fall most heavily on the travel time to health facilities for Kenyans, while Kenyan citizens themselves prioritize the quality of government healthcare facilities above the other factors. The weights of importance calculated for each factor according to survey responses could lead to varied funding and development priorities both in the type of work to be completed and what locations within Kenya require the most focus

Boise Bike Share Location Analysis

In consultation with the Central District Health Department, the Community and Regional Planning program conducted a bike share analysis that locates and optimizes the number of bikes and bike share stations for a 2.25-mile radius in the Downtown Boise area. After examining several bike share projects in other cities and studies of their methodologies two analyses from Seattle, Washington and Los Angeles County, California proved helpful in developing the Boise Bike Share Location Analysis. Using GIS optimization analysis to determine the optimal number of bikes and bike stations resulted in 140 bikes and 14 stations as the optimal finding

The mine is a sediment hosted disseminated gold deposit within Pennsylvanian to Mississippian age siltstones of the Schoonover formation. Gold mineralization is tightly structurally controlled. Ore structures are predominately east-west striking north dipping normal faults formed during Pre-Basin and Range extension. Alteration consists of dolomitization, sericitization, decalcification, and silicification. Gold is deposited syn or post genetically with decalcification and silicification. Gold occurs as free grains, up to seven microns in size, within the edges of arsenical pyrite as well as encapsulated in silica within the siltstone matrix. Arsenic, antimony, mercury, thallium, and cadmium are all associated with gold in the ore zones with cadmium and thallium showing the best correlation to gold
