Mapping Challenge Update (02/25/21): Schools in CA & NV

February 25, 2021

Volunteers contributed over 300 edits since this challenge was launched last week. This includes the removal of points that are either closed or the wrong feature type. Thank you for helping to update The National Map!

This challenge is slightly different than our previous schools challenges in that this one also includes postsecondary schools. Features in this challenge include General Schools, Elementary Schools, Middle Schools, High Schools, Colleges / Universities, and Technical / Trade Schools.

Remember we are not collecting childcare, preschools, or schools where kindergarten is the highest level offered. If you come across any of these features that we're not collecting or a feature that has since closed, document your findings in the 'Comment' field and delete the point. 

See the original post from February 18, 2021 for more tips and tricks.
