Abstract: Si la majorité des atlas de santé sont avant tout fondés sur des bases de données exhaustives, ce travail démontre qu'il est possible d'utiliser les données d'une enquête pour fournir une représentation géographique de la santé d'une population. L'utilisation de cartes constitue un moyen attractif de faire apparaitre des différences régionales et de générer des hypothèses, surtout dans un pays multiculturel comme la Suisse.
