Education Facilities in Saint Lucia from OpenStreetMap

An OpenStreetMap export of education facilities in Saint Lucia, including schools, kindergartens, colleges, and universities. The data is contributed by volunteers and maintained by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT). It was last updated on 2026-05-14.

Use Cases

• Map school access and catchment areas based on facility locations.
• Plan education infrastructure development based on existing facility distribution.
• Allocate educational resources based on the density and type of facilities.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats (GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON).
• Explicitly includes schools, kindergartens, colleges, and universities tagged via OSM's `amenity` or `building` keys.

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.
