We plan to provide a data package for each dataset that contains (A) a curated dataset that contains raw, validated data, (B) the quality control normalized (QC’d) dataset that has been normalized to Sage Bionetworks standards, (C) network models built from QC’d data, (D) documentation describing data processing that is sufficient for replication of analyses (usually in the form of code), and (E) documentation describing data source, citations, and any data use restrictions.

Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation - Catalog. HealthData.gov - Catalog. Community Health Status Indicators (CHSI) to combat obesity, heart disease, and cancer are major components of the Community Health Data Initiative.

This dataset provides key health indicators for local communities and encourages dialogue about actions that can be taken to improve community health (e.g., obesity, heart disease, cancer). The CHSI report and dataset was designed not only for public health professionals but also for members of the community who are interested in the health of their community. The CHSI report contains over 200 measures for each of the 3,141 United States counties.

Although CHSI presents indicators like deaths due to heart disease and cancer, it is imperative to understand that behavioral factors such as obesity, tobacco use, diet, physical activity, alcohol and drug use, sexual behavior and others substantially contribute to these deaths.
