To map elements related to education, the following must be taken into account:
- Names should not use abbreviations (tag name=*). Many schools are called IE or IED, but they must be added as "Institución Educativa" or "Institución Educativa Distrital", respectively.
- The type of amenity=* that can be:
- amenity=kindergarten.
- amenity=school for a school (escuela or colegio).
- amenity=college for a technical institute.
- amenity=university for a university.
- The educational levels of the aforementioned amenities are defined by the tag isced:level=* together with a numerical value. Later in this article a correspondence with educational levels in Colombia is shown. Keep in mind that this correspondence is generic, and does not indicate the grades as such.
- To indicate which grades an educational institution offers, the tag grades=* is used.
- Depending on who the operator is, and their social objective can be mapped like this:
- Public: operator:type=government.
- Private: operator:type=private.
- Religious group (for example, Carmelite sisters): operator:type=religious.
- Non-governmental organization - Entidad Sin Ánimo de Lucro (ESAL): operator:type=ngo.
- To indicate the name of the operator, the tag operator=* is used.
- Some establishments can set age ranges, so you can use: min_age=* and max_age=*.
- Schools have two types of calendars A and B, which can be mapped with: service_times:ref:CO=A or service_times:ref:CO=B.
- Optionally you can put the months that define the calendar (although this can vary from year to year): For calendar A - service_times=Feb-Nov; SH closed, and for calendar B - service_times=Sep-Jun; SH closed.
