Trasnparent School

The Trasparent School application aims to map higher education institutions in Paris and its region and present in a visual way various statistics about these institutions.
It also displays Foursquare tips and special offers from local businesses around geolocated institutions.

The application is composed of three parts:

• Map of all higher education institutions in the Paris region, which enables users to filter institutions by type, supervisory ministry or administrative status and displays Foursquare tips and special offers from local businesses around geolocated institutions.
• Dashboard which gives a breakdown of institutions by district (graph), by status (public and private) and by type: public university, Grande Ecole, university-grade institute etc. (pie charts).
• Charts visualizing some statistics from the institutions real estate directory, including the largest site owners, top 6 site owners etc.

The application was created based on the “Real Estate Directory for Higher Education Institutions” dataset taken from PARISDATA and the Foursquare API (tips & specials).
