RESEARCH PAPER

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

In recent years, the Ministry of Education (MOE) has been appointing new mergers between schools and relocating them. These schools include primary schools, secondary schools as well as junior colleges. The merging and relocation of schools would mean lesser schools in each neighbourhoods. This would affect the students' accessibility to certain schools, especially those in primary schools where parents need to send their children to schools. With more upcoming mergers of school by MOE, it is important for the government and schools to know the inconvenience in terms of time and distance travelled caused by the mergers and implement measures to ensure that these areas have better accessibility. Thus, our team aims to identify the HDB residential areas that are affected due to the merger of schools.

PROJECT OBJECTIVES

Building an application that uses Geospatial to identify the accessibility of HDB residential areas to schools.
