This is a really nice project, especially in seeing the geographic 
distribution of all the schools. Did you geocode the location of schools 
yourselves or are the GPS coordinates present in the DISE data itself? I'm 
curious because I had previously looked at the DISE for Madhya Pradesh and 
Jharkhand, and found some mistakes in their pin code listings. Thanks for 
sharing this great project!

Best,

Jeff
