Education Facilities in Nicaragua from OpenStreetMap

Nicaragua's education facilities exported from OpenStreetMap. The data includes schools, kindergartens, colleges, and universities tagged via `amenity` or `building` keys. It was last updated on 2026-05-14 by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team.

Use Cases

• Map school access based on facility locations.
• Plan education infrastructure based on existing facility distribution.
• Allocate resources using geospatial data on education facilities.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• The dataset is derived from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map.

Limitations

• Completeness varies by region; urban areas are usually well-mapped, remote areas may be incomplete.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
