About this map

School Performance in America

This map contains the latest available data on graduation rates, math and reading performance for the time between 2007 and 2010. This is data that has been published by the Department of Education continuously since [YEAR], for the first time it is made available through an easy to explore interface and as download in an open format.

Sharing the map

At any time, you can grab a snippet of the map and embed it in another web site - just like a YouTube video. The embed will maintain the exact location you have navigated to.

Dear RECIPIENT NAME,

In recent weeks we have made good progress in adding missing parts of CITY to OpenStreetMap [2]. If you haven't heard of OpenStreetMap before, it is like a WikiPedia of maps, providing a comprehensive, open map of the world [3] for anyone to use.

From your website I have seen that you manage street name information [4]. We would love to contribute it to OpenStreetMap to further complete the data of CITY, but we have questions around the licensing of this data.

What are the conditions under which you make street name data and other geo data available?

If you have any specific questions, I'd be happy to get on the phone with you and explain more.

Mapas Dinámicos Rápidos con OpenStreetMap, MapBox.js y Google Spreadsheets

En Tiempo para Desarrollando América Latina: Una Receta para Desarrollar Rápidamente Aplicaciones Geográficas

En los talleres de mapeo en preparación a Desarrollando América Latina de este fin de semana, pasamos una parte hablando de cómo utilizar Google Spreadsheets y MapBox.js. Es una arquitectura especialmente favorable en el contexto de una hackathon ya que permite rápidamente crear una aplicación para la colección y presentación de datos geográficos. Aquí les mostramos un ejemplo.

Registro de Incidentes Delictivos

Este sitio es un prototipo que desarrollamos con la Sub Gerencia de Seguridad Ciudadana de la Municipalidad Provincial de Huamanga. Permite registrar incidentes delictivos en la ciudad de Ayacucho y mostrar automáticamente los datos de manera dinámica y en tiempo real.

January 28 Virtual Mappy Hour: Community Server Resources

Are you in need for access to a larger server to process big OpenStreetMap data? Are you looking for a quick way to work with OpenStreetMap data without setting up your own database? Do you have a particular data processing question? Join us for next week's Virtual Mappy Hour where Ian Dees will do an introduction to community server resources provided by the OpenStreetMap US chapter.

OpenStreetMap US provides a series of server resources to the OpenStreetMap community free of charge. You can use these servers for jobs that are too large or too long running for your local machine and for cooperating with other community members.

You can see a full list of our servers on our Wiki. These servers offer the following:

  • Full, hourly updated copy of the OpenStreetMap rendering database
  • Latest Mapnik installed and the ability to render and cache arbitrary tile sets
