Most of the public schools were initially located in 2003 by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP), and were checked in 2007-2023 by the NJ Office of GIS (NJOGIS) against the NJ Department of Education (NJDOE) tabular data that were acquired in August, 2022, and the data derived by other organizations and volunteers.Charter schools were initially located in 2011 and checked through 2022 by NJOGIS against the 2022 NJDOE tabular data of public schools that also lists charter schools.Private schools were located initially in 2010, and updated later for Somerset County using the spatial data provided by Somerset County GIS team. The present data set is the result of checking and updating the previous locations by processing the 2022 NJDOE tabular data.</dc:description><dc:format>ArcGIS FeatureLayer</dc:format><dc:identifier>https://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/6f5ebca854234638953a9342f5b3d620_0</dc:identifier><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:publisher>New Jersey Geographic Information Network (NJGIN) Open Data Portal</dc:publisher><dc:rights>Public</dc:rights><dc:title>School Point Locations of NJ (Public, Private and Charter) [New Jersey]</dc:title><dc:type>Web services</dc:type><dc:coverage>New Jersey</dc:coverage><dc:date>Last Modified: 2023-05-10</dc:date></oai_dc:dc>
