Riverine maternal access
RAMAV measures the real journey to maternal care: waiting for a boat, the crossing, the landing, and the walk to a facility that can help. Community summaries only — never household names or home locations.

Insufficient data
Empty slices stay empty. RAMAV will not invent a travel time.
The journey we count
Preparation and movement are included. Waiting after arrival is stored, but it is not part of total access time. If the night boat is not running, we say the route is unavailable — we do not guess a time.
The clock starts here, not at the hospital gate.
Money, a companion, and a boat that actually comes.
Creek, river, and landing — recorded as they were travelled.
Nearest is not always able. Emergency care has to be possible.
Drafts stay drafts until a researcher checks them.
What the public sees
Researchers enter journeys. Officers compare seasons, night travel, and capable facilities. The public view stays at community level. If the data is thin, the page says insufficient data.
