A Duke Global Health Institute Initiative
Inventory and access guide
A working catalog of climate, environmental, health, infrastructure, and population datasets relevant to climate-health research.
This catalog separates three different ideas: datasets CGHI may eventually host as small samples or curated extracts, datasets that should be accessed from an external provider, and restricted health or survey data that require careful access workflows.
Records marked as needing review are leads rather than final recommendations. They remain visible so users can see the breadth of possible sources while CGHI improves provider links, access notes, licenses, and example workflows.

The catalog includes direct links, large external sources, restricted health datasets, and records that still need metadata review. Start with a task instead of scanning the whole list.
This is now structured as a catalog, not just a list. Records with quality flags should be treated as leads until provider, access, license, and source links are reviewed.
