Peruvian Education Facilities from OpenStreetMap, May 2026 Export

May 2026 OpenStreetMap export of Peruvian education facilities compiled by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team. The dataset includes features tagged as kindergarten, school, college, or university. It likely contains attributes such as name, address, capacity, and operator type.

Use Cases

• Map the distribution of educational institutions across Peru based on amenity and building tags.
• Analyze the capacity of schools and universities based on the capacity:persons attribute.
• Identify the operating types (public, private, etc.) of facilities based on the operator:type field.
• Study multilingual naming conventions for facilities based on name attributes in English, Spanish, Quechua, Aymara, and Asháninka.

Strengths

• Includes multilingual name attributes (name:es, name:qu, name:ay, name:cni) which may support linguistic analysis.
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats (GEOPACKAGE, KML, GARMIN IMG, SHP, GEOJSON) for interoperability.

Limitations

• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data may reflect geographic or contributor bias inherent to OpenStreetMap.
