Turkmenistan Education Facilities from OpenStreetMap

Turkmenistan's education facilities exported from OpenStreetMap. The dataset includes schools, kindergartens, colleges, and universities tagged via `amenity` or `building` keys. It was last updated on 2026-05-15 by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team.

Use Cases

• Map school access and proximity based on facility locations.
• Plan education infrastructure development based on existing facility distribution.
• Allocate resources by analyzing the density and types of education facilities.

Strengths

• Data is provided in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Derived from a free, collaborative global mapping project (OpenStreetMap).
• Explicitly includes schools, kindergartens, colleges, and universities.

Limitations

• Completeness varies by region; urban areas are usually well-mapped while 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.
