It is published as ML-ready Parquet with consistent Hugging Face metadata, source provenance, and analysis-friendly loading examples. ## What This Dataset Measures Health datasets help analysts monitor disease burden, service delivery, population health outcomes, and public-health program performance. Source-provided context: List of Clinics in Mauritius ## How To Read This Dataset - **One row means:** one source record from the original tabular resource, with Electric Sheep Africa provenance columns added where available. - **Primary geography column:** `country_iso3`. - **Best time column:** `source_period_start_year`. - **Time coverage basis:** source_period_start_year. - **Recommended join keys:** `country_iso3` where available plus source-specific keys. ## Coverage | Dimension | Value | |---|---:| | Rows | 11 | | Countries/areas | 1 | | First period | detected | | Last period | detected | | Indicators | 0 | | Columns | 17 | | Source format | CSV | ## Geographic Coverage Top areas shown below, sorted by row count when available: | Area | Rows | First year | Last year | Name | |------|-----:|-----------:|----------:|------| | `MU` | 11 | detected | detected | `Mauritius` | ## Indicators, Variables, Or Resource Contents - This repo preserves one source tabular resource with its usable columns kept together. ## Schema | Column | Type | Description | Example | |--------|------|-------------|---------| | `source_record_id` | `string` | Stable row identifier assigned during Electric Sheep Africa engineering. | `9b0ccd83-d892-4243-ac98-615831816f20:0` | | `country_iso3` | `dictionary` | ISO3 country or area code. | `MU` | | `country_name` | `dictionary` | Country or area name. | `Mauritius` | | `clinics` | `string` | Source column from the original resource. | `Wellkin Hospital` | | `telephone` | `int64` | Source column from the original resource. | `6051000` | | `region` | `string` | Source column from the original resource. | `Reduit` | | `source_period_start_year` | `int64` | Start year inferred from source metadata. | `` | | `source_period_end_year` | `int64` | End year inferred from source metadata. | `` | | `source_period_label` | `string` | Source column from the original resource. | `` | | `source_provider` | `dictionary` | Publishing organization. | `MDPA` | | `source_dataset` | `dictionary` | Source dataset or package title. | `List of Clinics in Mauritius` | | `source_resource` | `dictionary` | Source resource title, table name, or file name. | `ListOfClinics-in-Mauritius.csv` | | `source_package_id` | `dictionary` | Source package identifier. | `16583d08-0d20-4b8b-a873-351fe4dfa3f0` | | `source_resource_id` | `dictionary` | Source resource identifier. | `9b0ccd83-d892-4243-ac98-615831816f20` | | `source_url` | `dictionary` | Original source URL or download URL. | `https://data.govmu.org/dataset/16583d08-0d20-4b8b-a873-351fe4dfa3f0/r...` | | `license_id` | `dictionary` | Source license identifier. | `CC-BY-SA-4.0` | | `retrieved_at` | `dictionary` | UTC source retrieval timestamp from the Electric Sheep Africa pipeline. | `2026-08-08T16:26:20Z` | ## Usage ```python from datasets import load_dataset ds = load_dataset("electricsheepafrica/africa-mauritius-list-of-clinics-in-mauritius-634fd252") df = ds["train"].to_pandas() print(df.head()) ``` ### Inspect Columns ```python print(df.info()) print(df.head()) ``` ### Filter By Geography ```python if "country_iso3" in df.columns: sample = df[df["country_iso3"] == "MU"] ``` ### Time-Series Pattern ```python if "value" in df.columns and "source_period_start_year" in df.columns: trend = df.sort_values("source_period_start_year") ``` ### Pivot For Analysis ```python if {"indicator_id", "year", "value"}.issubset(df.columns): matrix = df.pivot_table(index="year", columns="indicator_id", values="value") print(matrix.tail()) ``` ## Data Quality Notes - Canonical time field: `source_period_start_year`. - Missing values are preserved rather than silently imputed. - Column names are standardized for machine use; source meanings are preserved where known. - Always confirm source methodology, units, and collection definitions before policy, production, or redistribution-sensitive use. ## Source And Provenance - **Source:** [MDPA](https://data.govmu.org/dataset/list-clinics-mauritius) - **Publisher:** MDPA - **Portal:** [https://data.govmu.org](https://data.govmu.org) - **Resource:** [ListOfClinics-in-Mauritius.csv](https://data.govmu.org/dataset/16583d08-0d20-4b8b-a873-351fe4dfa3f0/resource/9b0ccd83-d892-4243-ac98-615831816f20/download/listofclinics-in-mauritius.csv) - **License:** [CC BY-SA 4.0](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/) - **Retrieved/generated:** `2026-08-08T17:17:52Z` - **Hugging Face repo:** [electricsheepafrica/africa-mauritius-list-of-clinics-in-mauritius-634fd252](https://huggingface.co/datasets/electricsheepafrica/africa-mauritius-list-of-clinics-in-mauritius-634fd252) ## Transformations Applied - Converted the source table to Parquet for efficient analytics and ML workflows. - Added or preserved source provenance columns where available. - Standardized README metadata, dataset loading configuration, schema documentation, and citation format. - Preserved source-reported values without analytical imputation. ## Suggested Analyses - Compare health outcomes across geographies - Track changes over time - Join with population or facility data - Build time-series views and period-over-period comparisons - Check missingness before modeling - Use `country_iso3` as the safest geography join key when present ## Citation ```bibtex @misc{electric_sheep_africa_africa_mauritius_list_of_clinics_in_mauritius_634fd252_2026, title = {List of Clinics in Mauritius | Africa (MDPA)}, author = {MDPA}, year = {2026}, url = {https://data.govmu.org/dataset/list-clinics-mauritius}, publisher = {Hugging Face Datasets, engineered by Electric Sheep Africa}, howpublished = {\url{https://huggingface.co/datasets/electricsheepafrica/africa-mauritius-list-of-clinics-in-mauritius-634fd252}} } ``` ## License Released under [CC BY-SA 4.0](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/).
