The State of TN has unveiled its Vaccine Informaton web site, which includes an interactive Vaccine Finder map (Mapbox/OpenStreetMap-based) of locations where one can receive COVID vaccinations. Both Health Department - sponsored locations and other Pharmaceutical \ Clinic locations are identified on the map. More...
The State of Tennessee's COVID-19 Unified Command has produced a GIS-based COVID-19 Dashboard that provides interactive access to statewide maps, data, graphs and charts related to the ongoing emergency. Different panels on the dashboard provide information related to the distribution of cases by county (and age), along with the geographical locations of Assessment (or testing) Sites across the state (including Knoxville and Knox County). Links to this and other COVID-related maps, including additional testing sites, can be found on KGIS's COVID-19 Maps & GIS page.
KGIS has created a new Public WiFi Theme in the COVID-19 Services & Resources Map showcasing those locations at which the public can gain access to free WiFi from the safe distance and comfort of their cars. As of April 22, 2020, there are six different sites available (all of which are at the Knox County Senior Centers). As more sites become available, KGIS will add those to this same map theme. Click HERE more information about the Knox County Senior Center WiFi access program. Note that the COVID-19 Services & Resources Map has several different "layers" (such as COVID testing sites), each of which can be toggled on/off (via the Map Layers panel...see image below).
In partnership with the Knox County Health Department and KEMA, the KGIS Office has designed a COVID-19 Resources & Services Map to promote some of the available services (and resources) for citizens of Knoxville and Knox County during this pandemic emergency. KGIS relies upon information from other agencies and departments, but in particular upon the advise and counsel of the Knox County Health Department and the Knoxville Emergency Managament Agency (KEMA). KGIS welcomes any feedback regarding out-of-date or erroneous information presented on this site (Email us at kgis@kgis.org).
The map currently shows four different service categories: Appointment Only Testing, Youth Food Locations, PPE Donation Sites and Public WiFi Sites. Users of this interactive map might choose to visit the generic Services & Resources Map, or optionally, link directly to one of the specific categories (or "themes"). (see below hyperlinks). Each Theme "toggles" on/off layers of information to provide a more focused view of services on the map. As new service categories ("themes") are added to the map, KGIS will accordingly provide direct hyperlinks to those new themes.
Visit KGIS's COVID-19 GIS Maps & Resources page for more news and links to COVID-related GIS sites.
The Knox County Health Department has provided details and statistics (including an interactive map) of the COVID-19 cases in Knox County as part of its Case Count interactive dashboard. The chloropath map is updated with new information each Friday by Knox County, and highlights the zip codes based upon total number of cases.
