This is an interactive voronoi diagram of U.S. hospitals. In brief, the algorithm bisects neighboring pairs of hospitals generating polygons. All points within a hospital’s polygon are nearest to that particular hospital. You may think of this area as their catchment area.

Due to the complexity of the visual, you may wish to open in full size. Because of the embedding of the visual, the default view is centered around Toledo, Ohio.
