Hi, I just spotted you are discussing mapping schools. Here in the UK we ran a quarterly project on schools which was very successful in terms of the number of people involved and the tools developed.
As a starting point, check out the wiki page: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UK_2016_Q1_Project:_Schools Some notes: - We collected gov data for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - all point data. - Few mappers for Northern Ireland so there remains a lot to do there. - Some great tools to track progress were developed including Robert W's progress tool [1] Harry W's edits tracker [2]. Both, I'm sure would be happy to help in Ireland too. - Martijn helped us set up a MapRoulette challenge. It was a bit late in the quarter so most people had already found their prefered way of working. - Christian L developed a great tool [3], just a bit too late for our project. This used polygon data from the OS OpenData series. Give me a shout if you have any questions.
