OASIS is a suite of interactive tools used to access the Georgia Department of Human Resources, Division of Public Health's standardized health data repository. OASIS and the Repository are designed, built and maintained by the Office of Health Information and Policy (OHIP). The Mapping Tool, designed by OHIP, is developed and maintained by the University of Georgia's Carl Vinson Institute of Government, ITOS Division.

The standardized health data repository used by OASIS is currently populated with Vital Statistics (births, deaths, infant deaths, fetal deaths, induced terminations), Georgia Comprehensive Cancer Registry, Hospital Discharge, Emergency Room Visit, Arboviral Surveillance, Risk Behavior Surveys (Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS), and Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Survey (BRFSS)), STD, and Population data. Other datasets/data sources will be added. We welcome inquiries about translating your data into more meaningful information through OASIS. If more detailed information is needed, please contact us.

List of Indicators in Oasis

Indicators in each tool are selectable by a variety of population, disease, and survey characteristics. Where applicable, you can choose data by age groups, race, ethnicity, sex (person), census tract, county, health district, legislative district, state (place), and year (time).

All tables and maps pertain to place of residence, not occurrence.

OASIS plays an integral role in program planning, which includes determining target population areas, formulating financial plans, monitoring program effectiveness, program evaluation and reporting program outcomes. Use OASIS cutting-edge data querying tools to:

• Develop profiles and report cards for counties or districts,
• Assess community health needs, prioritize health problems, and evaluate programs,
• Assemble data for grant writing, health analysis, special projects or state legislative reporting,
• Examine data by census tract to identify high risk populations, and allocate resources, or
• Identify areas that contribute a disproportionate share of a health issue,
• Target problem areas to analyze specific health problems and outcomes,
• Create a basis for health communications or health advocacy,
• Apply GIS to analyze varied environmental risks focused on disease process, economic status and other environmental variables that influence health outcomes, and
• Map several geographic areas to compare varied health outcomes.

OASIS is a streamline process to compile or share data. Trust OASIS to:

• Collect and present data more efficiently,
• Save substantial staff time by accessing the Division of Public Health Repository directly,
• Decrease potential for errors in calculations,
• Have the flexibility to retrieve and display information in different formats, and
• Provide quick access to definitions and formulas relating to the data sets.

No need to page through data books or make special requests, OASIS can access data more efficiently and accurately. If there are information needs above and beyond what OASIS can provide, please contact us.
