Assemble data to use future sites

Problem

As a side project can you start assembling africa-wide data for geocontext and gisbox use
more for the former particularly things that are useful in the healthsector
the idea would be to take the tech that we have built for freshwaterbiodiversity and apply it on healthsites.io so that we can assign clinics / hospitals with contextual data
and then add slice and dice capabilities like Dimas has build on healthy rivers

e.g. Geospatial World/

First high-resolution land cover map of Africa by ESA - View the images!
The map has been created using a year of data gathered from Sentinel-2A satellite. And at a resolution of 20 m per pixel, we can explore from Zimbabwe

Particularly things that relate to health like urban vs rural, malaria areas, etc

Here is another nice set of services that Hans just gave me a heads up for:
https://io.apps.fao.org/geoserver/wms?
(for adding to an Africa-wide GeoContext collection)

In QGIS as a wms service
It should give you a GeoServer
only the 250m layers are Africa wide
I think for the caching we could add a native resolution flag
so that when doing pixel lookups for a service
the coordinates are rounded to the nearest 250m for example

Actual data coming from https://wapor.apps.fao.org/home/1

Additional data from https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1utQRlrX3lJniBjWE3rNjLZeTRsbjH-zdjxNmXhhvO9Q/edit#gid=46

We need to generate a list for datasets we have in GeoServer and the database including the ones in the list above
