Contribution Type Co-Authored Publication

Details The purpose of this study was to develop new food access maps using food availability rates for
healthy eating indicator shopping basket (HEISB). First, we developed three types of HEISB: fresh
food (with 33 items), processed food (with 49 items), and ready to eat meals (with three items). The
types of food retailers we examined were supermarkets, convenience stores, drug stores, discount
stores, and mobile sales wagons, each of which was located in our study area. Second, we developed
three new types of food access maps using the availability of food in these store types to supply the
three types of HEISB.
