Data Visualizations

Explore local patterns of diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus (DPT) vaccination coverage across Africa from 2000 to 2016 with this interactive visualization tool. 

Analyze updated data about the world’s health levels and trends from 1990 to 2017 in this interactive tool using estimates from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study. Use treemaps, maps, arrow diagrams, and other charts to compare causes and risks within a country (now at the US state-level), compare countries with regions or the world, and explore patterns and trends by country, age, and gender. Drill from a global view into specific details.

Where do we have the best data on different health conditions? For any age group, see where various data sources have placed trends in causes of death over time. You can examine more than 250 causes in both adjusted and pre-adjusted numbers, rates, and percentages for 195 countries and territories.

With this tool, users can explore progress made toward achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Measure progress made by 195 countries and territories from 1990 to 2017 and projecting attainment to 2030 toward 41 health-related indicators. See how countries have progressed over time. Share and download figures for later use.

Explore local patterns of diarrhea burden across Africa from 2000 to 2015 with this interactive visualization tool. Compare diarrheal prevalence, incidence, and mortality at multiple spatial scales – from values at the country level to estimates for individual districts and departments. Search for specific areas to view local trends, and share your findings with others. Observe temporal patterns of improvement, and examine the probability of achieving the WHO Global Action Plan for Pneumonia and Diarrhea (GAPPD) goals. 

With this interactive map visualization, explore local patterns in educational attainment across 51 African countries from 2000 to 2015. Compare how years of education vary between men and women and across two different age groups. Observe trends at multiple spatial scales and search to view trends in specific countries and local areas.

This interactive data visualization tool shows levels and trends in growth failure at birth and in children under 5, both past and projected from 1990 to 2030. Explore results for countries, regions, and the globe alongside the data. 

Explore US health care spending for 155 conditions for the years 1996 through 2013. Use the interactive Sankey diagram, treemap, and pyramid chart to analyze trends by age, sex, type of care, and condition. New in Nov 2017: view how different factors drove changes in spending.

With this interactive mapping tool, explore localized child and infant mortality trends within 46 countries in Africa from 2000 to 2015. View trends at different spatial resolutions and examine change over time and the improvement rates needed to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal for child mortality. Search to view trends in specific countries, districts, and local areas. Easily share maps with others. 

The Social Determinants of Health visualization tool allows you to explore the relationships between determinants of health and health indicators across countries. This second release of the tool presents antenatal care visits, skilled birth attendance, measles and DPT3 immunization coverage, lag distributed income, and educational attainment. Users can visualize the relationships between these determinants and life expectancy, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) by cause, years lived with disability (YLDs) by cause, and causes of death. Additional determinants and indicators will be added to the tool in subsequent releases.

How did life expectancy and probability of death change between 1990 and 2015 in 195 countries? Examine changes in life expectancy and see how causes contributed to changes in life expectancy. Explore the probability of death by cause, location, sex, and year. Analyze healthy life expectancy (HALE) by sex, location, and year.
