Description

This dataset provides geospatial information on access to hospitals across all census tracts in Spain from 2010 to 2024. For each census tract and year, it includes travel time and distance to the nearest hospital (based on shortest driving time), both for walking and driving modes. Key variables include CUSEC (census tract ID), time_walk, dist_walk, time_car, and dist_car. Hospital locations were sourced from OpenStreetMap and routes were calculated using the OSRM engine. The data, available in CSV format, is part of a study on territorial inequalities in healthcare access and is openly available for reuse in public health and spatial analysis.
