ABSTRACT
The PA Hospice layer was developed to show the geospatial locations of hospices in Pennsylvania. It can be used in various emergency and health related maps. A hospice is a home providing care for the sick or terminally ill. When possible, efforts were made to confirm the rooftop location of each hospice. The accuracy of geocoding is available in Geocoding Certainty attribute field (Geocoding Certainty: Rooftop="00", Street="01", Zip Centroid="04", Not geocoded="99"). Latitude and longitude are recorded in the WGS 1984 coordinate system in decimal degrees.
