Abstract: The Education Centers dataset contains comprehensive information about educational institutions, including schools, colleges, and universities. It typically includes data such as institution names, addresses, contact information, number of students, etc.
Purpose: Geospatially locating education data allows policymakers and researchers to identify regional disparities in educational resources, access, and outcomes. By visualizing this data on maps, it becomes easier to pinpoint areas that may require additional support or intervention.
