The Two-Step Floating Catchment Area (2SFCA) method is a spatial analysis technique used in health services research and urban planning to assess accessibility to healthcare services or other amenities. It combines the concepts of "catchment areas" (regions that a service provider can effectively reach) and "floating catchments," which allows for a more dynamic evaluation of service availability considering the proximity and population distribution around healthcare facilities.
