Data Quality Information

Lineage
Statement
Data Source: The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction's Wisconsin School Directory (https://apps6.dpi.wi.gov/SchDirPublic/home). Initial school locations were geocoded using the ArcGIS World Geocoding Service. Addresses with an address type (Addr_Type) below PointAddress (in this case StreetAddress and StreetName) were verified manually for location accuracy and moved to building rooftop if an exact building could be identified through aerial imagery and/or Google Maps.
