Dataset
To provide information on rural and small-town water supply facilities and service performance in the Upper East Region of Ghana to support water service planning, monitoring, and decision-making.
The Upper East Region page is part of the Community Water and Sanitation Agency (CWSA) Water Atlas, an online platform that disseminates information on rural and small-town water services across selected regions of Ghana. The platform presents the results of service monitoring activities and provides access to regional, district, and community-level water service information.
The Upper East Region page provides data reports, interactive maps, and links to raw datasets related to rural and small-town water services. Available data reports include handpump data by area council and community, piped scheme management data, and service authority data. The platform also includes thematic maps on piped scheme functionality, handpump types, handpump functionality, piped scheme management, service levels of handpumps, and other water service indicators. Additionally, the page provides access to raw datasets on handpumps, piped schemes, handpump management, piped scheme management, and service authorities; however, access to these raw datasets is restricted and requires a password.
Data are compiled from monitoring activities conducted across participating regions and aggregated into the online atlas to support benchmarking, policy development, programming, investment planning, and evidence-based decision-making in the water sector.
