Spatial Data Analysis and Application Workshop (Mental Health / Caregiver Support Services)

As service needs become increasingly complex, every aspect of our planning reflects our commitment to the community and the impact we create. Have you ever wondered—are our services truly reaching those who need them most? Are our resources being used effectively?
Spatial data analysis offers new perspectives for service development! In collaboration with the Geospatial Lab, HKCSS is organising two workshops on Spatial Data Analysis and Application for NGO staff working in mental health and caregiver support services on February 19 and 25, respectively. During the workshop, instructors will introduce projects and case studies on spatial data applications, demonstrating how geographic tagging tools can transform textual data into intuitive spatial data. Participants will also explore how to integrate spatial data to assess current service conditions and needs, enabling better resource allocation in the long run.
This workshop will showcase case studies and share applications in various scenarios. Participants will have the opportunity to exchange insights with other mental health service workers, identify service gaps and needs, and explore how spatial data can be applied to service planning.
