Alachua County Public Schools GIS and School Planning Professional Services

The DRMP GIS team currently assists the Alachua County Public School District by providing data collection, analysis and visualization services.

Examples of recent tasks include mapping student address data, updating planning data sets for concurrency areas and examining zoning/attendance issues. The DRMP team designs and maintains this data in an ArcGIS 10.3 file geodatabase and ArcGIS Online maps containing information on:

  • Block and block group level U.S. Census Data
  • School enrollment and capacity
  • School concurrency and development review status
  • Capital Outlay Full-Time (COFTE) Equivalent tables
  • Transportation infrastructure
  • Housing type
  • Current Land Use and Future Land Use
  • School facilities and school district property

The project database also includes Certificate of Occupancy permits from the Alachua County and City of Gainesville Building Departments that are mapped, matched and maintained to the County housing inventory as a method to analyze development rates in the region.
