GeoJed: A Geospatial Grid Model for Data Acquisition and Spatial–Quality Assessment of Healthcare Services in Jeddah

The limited availability of structured and consistent health-facility information poses challenges for assessing service accessibility and quality in rapidly growing cities, particularly in the Middle East. Although digital map platforms provide extensive public data, such information is often fragmented and not directly suitable for systematic spatial analysis. This study presents GeoJed, a framework designed to automate the collection, organisation, and spatial analysis of healthcare facility information from digital map platforms. The framework is demonstrated through a case study in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, highlighting its applicability for large-scale and reproducible spatial analysis of healthcare services. Using the resulting GeoJedHF dataset, a baseline analysis was conducted to illustrate the analytical value of the collected data, including the construction of an initial Patient Satisfaction Index (PSI) that integrates service availability with user-reported quality indicators derived from a multilingual sentiment model (XLM-RoBERTa). The results reveal clear spatial variations between districts in both facility distribution and perceived service quality. Overall, GeoJed establishes a reusable and extensible process for facility-level spatial data acquisition and analysis, with potential applications in accessibility assessment, urban planning, and service evaluation.
