Point geometry feature class representing Colorado public school and private school locations along with the locations of school district offices, developed directly from address information obtained from the Colorado Department of Education in 2022.  Coordinate locations (latitude/longitude) were derived from the known street addresses of health facilities using a combination of Centrus MapMarker geocoding software and Google Earth imagery locations.  This file was developed by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment for use in program activities and emergency preparedness exercises.

This layer represents the OIT Community Anchor Institutions (CAI) data set. ''Community Anchor Institutions'' consist of schools, libraries, medical and healthcare providers, public safety entities, community colleges and other institutions of higher education, and other community support organizations and entities. These locations may not offer broadband availability to the public (although most libraries and many schools, and community centers do) but offer an opportunity for policy makers to understand where community anchor institutions which have broadband access are located; this can help in identifying challenges and opportunities to reaching connectivity goals. Although it is constantly being improved upon, ultimately we aim for this data set to evolve into a reliable resource for emergency response services.
