Why use geospatial data
in educational planning?
4
1. Location is a crucial component of
educational planning
2. Geospatial information provides
insights that were up to now
impossible to gather
3. Decision-making is better informed
with geospatial information
Plan for today
1. Overview of several projects that
are ready for publication or for pilot
2. Deeper dive into 3 specific projects
with our technical partners
3. Some Hackathon results
4. Forum: Q&A, ideas, and invitations
for collaboration
Overview of key tools and
activities
1. Flowchart for school
mappings
2. Automatized Atlas and
Reports
3. Estimating local school-
age populations
4. Geographically-weighted
regressions
5. Background papers
6. Training offer
7
Technical flowcharts for
mapping school locations
Some countries have none or
partial school maps.
Part of our technical
cooperation offer is to support
ministries to prepare the work
and implement it together,
regardless of the system
currently in place.
8
Automatized Atlases
and Reports
Ministries of education produce high quality,
up-to-date statistical yearbooks that reflect
the performance of the education system
over a school year.
The transformation of EMIS information into
publishable reports can take a lot of time
since it requires extracting countless tables,
and generating charts and maps, not to
mention producing analytical text.
The Dev team created a technical guide on
the creation of these reports and Atlases
using open-source software.
9
Local school-age
populations
School age-population data is available for
large administrative areas, not always
allowing for responsive micro-planning.
Our new methodology allows for
estimating the school-age population at the
very local level (100m x 100m), when
national data are not available.
We can now estimate the proportion of
students of specific school-age that will be
affected by policies.
10
Geographically-weighted
regressions
Multiple confounding variables and
complex interactions doesn’t always make
it easy to understand the relation between
variables.
These relations are mediated by the
characteristics of a particular location, and
the characteristics of those locations
around it.
We can use GWR to know where are
variable more strongly correlated with
others, thus informing policy-making.
11
Background papers
Ethics and the use of geospatial information for
educational planning.
Mapping existing radio, TV, cellular and internet
networks to asses potential connectivity of the
education system to alternative delivery modes.
12
Our training offer
Self-paced QGIS training manual, with
follow-along examples using openly
available data.
A QGIS module embedded in the IIEP
specialized course on school mapping and
micro-planning
Customized training, i.e. a learning cycle
that would focus on using geospatial data to
assess equity of access to education.
Deeper dive on 3 of our
favourite tools
1. Isochrones for catchment
areas
2. Suitability and risk
analysis for educational
facilities
3. Rethinking inspection
circuits
14
Isochrones for catchment
areas: how far children live
from school?
Children and youth that need to walk 30, 60, or
120 minutes to school have very different
learning experiences.
This methodology can estimate the time
learners take to walk to school every day.
Implications for school location, transportation,
teaching and non-teaching staff deployment and
incentives.
15
Isochrones for catchment
areas: how far children live
from school?
Several open-source tools exist that can be
used to create isochrones.
Two main data components: school
locations and vector road network
(OpenStreetMap). Better the data quality,
better the results.
GraphHopper was used to create the
isochrones and further analysis (share of
school aged population covered) was done
in QGIS.
16
Geospatial risk
assessment for existing
educational facilities
Using national or free open source data
allows for mapping different natural
hazards and potential risks on the
education system.
The first step what we are looking into for
this project is the exposure of existing
schools to different risks and in this case
study natural hazard risks.
17
Multi-criteria decision
analysis tool for suitability
of land – for existing and
future schools
The model is created using a suitability
criteria analysis. Criteria within different
categories are chosen to base the site
suitability and are given a suitability score
(between 1 – 4).
By undertaking a suitability analysis it
allows for weighting of criteria and
customization depending on the context.
The output is a suitability map which
displays locations more or less suitable for
building or relocating education facilities.
18
Optimizing inspection
routes
In inspection-related literature,
resources and access to schools are
always mentioned as reasons for not
being able to visit each and every
school at the expected frequency.
What if we could design inspection
systems from scratch, using geospatial
data to draw the most optimized
inspection routes?
19
Optimizing inspection
routes
Inspector route problem contains several
geospatial problems:
● VRP (vehicle routing problem)
○ Fleet management approach
● Simple A to B routing
● Location allocation problem
● Minimum spanning tree analysis
● and some more!
Clustering schools and reallocating them
between inspectors can bring a more
optimized work process. When road
network and multi-modal routing is added to
the mix, the system can become very
complex.
Different analysis methods were
experimented mostly with QGIS.

Geospatial data in educational planning

  • 1. Geospatial data in educational planning IIEP Development Unit #IIEPdev Guarani, Minas Gerais, Brazil - August 20, 2019 - Rural school bus in Guarani, State of Minas Gerais, Brazil. De Ronaldo Almeida
  • 3. Our objectives 3 1. Improve EDplanning through the development of tools and methodologies 2. Serve as foresight forum and lab for experimentation 3. Explore unusual data sources, and methods 4. Engage with non-traditional partners Amélie A. Gagnon Senior Programme Specialist Bikalpa Baniya, Intern University of Pennsylvania Germán Vargas Mesa Assistant Programme Specialist Lili Vesserau, Intern HEC Paris/ SciencePo
  • 4. Why use geospatial data in educational planning? 4 1. Location is a crucial component of educational planning 2. Geospatial information provides insights that were up to now impossible to gather 3. Decision-making is better informed with geospatial information
  • 5. Plan for today 1. Overview of several projects that are ready for publication or for pilot 2. Deeper dive into 3 specific projects with our technical partners 3. Some Hackathon results 4. Forum: Q&A, ideas, and invitations for collaboration
  • 6. Overview of key tools and activities 1. Flowchart for school mappings 2. Automatized Atlas and Reports 3. Estimating local school- age populations 4. Geographically-weighted regressions 5. Background papers 6. Training offer
  • 7. 7 Technical flowcharts for mapping school locations Some countries have none or partial school maps. Part of our technical cooperation offer is to support ministries to prepare the work and implement it together, regardless of the system currently in place.
  • 8. 8 Automatized Atlases and Reports Ministries of education produce high quality, up-to-date statistical yearbooks that reflect the performance of the education system over a school year. The transformation of EMIS information into publishable reports can take a lot of time since it requires extracting countless tables, and generating charts and maps, not to mention producing analytical text. The Dev team created a technical guide on the creation of these reports and Atlases using open-source software.
  • 9. 9 Local school-age populations School age-population data is available for large administrative areas, not always allowing for responsive micro-planning. Our new methodology allows for estimating the school-age population at the very local level (100m x 100m), when national data are not available. We can now estimate the proportion of students of specific school-age that will be affected by policies.
  • 10. 10 Geographically-weighted regressions Multiple confounding variables and complex interactions doesn’t always make it easy to understand the relation between variables. These relations are mediated by the characteristics of a particular location, and the characteristics of those locations around it. We can use GWR to know where are variable more strongly correlated with others, thus informing policy-making.
  • 11. 11 Background papers Ethics and the use of geospatial information for educational planning. Mapping existing radio, TV, cellular and internet networks to asses potential connectivity of the education system to alternative delivery modes.
  • 12. 12 Our training offer Self-paced QGIS training manual, with follow-along examples using openly available data. A QGIS module embedded in the IIEP specialized course on school mapping and micro-planning Customized training, i.e. a learning cycle that would focus on using geospatial data to assess equity of access to education.
  • 13. Deeper dive on 3 of our favourite tools 1. Isochrones for catchment areas 2. Suitability and risk analysis for educational facilities 3. Rethinking inspection circuits
  • 14. 14 Isochrones for catchment areas: how far children live from school? Children and youth that need to walk 30, 60, or 120 minutes to school have very different learning experiences. This methodology can estimate the time learners take to walk to school every day. Implications for school location, transportation, teaching and non-teaching staff deployment and incentives.
  • 15. 15 Isochrones for catchment areas: how far children live from school? Several open-source tools exist that can be used to create isochrones. Two main data components: school locations and vector road network (OpenStreetMap). Better the data quality, better the results. GraphHopper was used to create the isochrones and further analysis (share of school aged population covered) was done in QGIS.
  • 16. 16 Geospatial risk assessment for existing educational facilities Using national or free open source data allows for mapping different natural hazards and potential risks on the education system. The first step what we are looking into for this project is the exposure of existing schools to different risks and in this case study natural hazard risks.
  • 17. 17 Multi-criteria decision analysis tool for suitability of land – for existing and future schools The model is created using a suitability criteria analysis. Criteria within different categories are chosen to base the site suitability and are given a suitability score (between 1 – 4). By undertaking a suitability analysis it allows for weighting of criteria and customization depending on the context. The output is a suitability map which displays locations more or less suitable for building or relocating education facilities.
  • 18. 18 Optimizing inspection routes In inspection-related literature, resources and access to schools are always mentioned as reasons for not being able to visit each and every school at the expected frequency. What if we could design inspection systems from scratch, using geospatial data to draw the most optimized inspection routes?
  • 19. 19 Optimizing inspection routes Inspector route problem contains several geospatial problems: ● VRP (vehicle routing problem) ○ Fleet management approach ● Simple A to B routing ● Location allocation problem ● Minimum spanning tree analysis ● and some more! Clustering schools and reallocating them between inspectors can bring a more optimized work process. When road network and multi-modal routing is added to the mix, the system can become very complex. Different analysis methods were experimented mostly with QGIS.
