Who said summers are quiet in Philadelphia? Welcome to another edition of the Azavea Journal!

The American Trauma Society’s TRAMAH website uses algorithms developed in collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania and Johns Hopkins University to understand and map access to trauma center hospitals across the country.

Visit the application and compare the three states with Azavea offices (Pennsylvania, Vermont, and Washington.

1. In which state does the largest percentage of the population have access to trauma care by ambulance within 45 minutes?

2. Which state has the smallest percentage of land coverage within 45 minutes?

3. Explore the US map. Three states have 100% of their population with access via helicopter or ambulance within 60 minutes. Name two of them.

Be the first to send an email with all three correct answers to info@azavea.com and we will send you a $20 gift card to Barnes & Noble!
