Abstract

The school mapping is essentially required to detect and accomplish the educational facilities of the schools. The android application of school mapping is developed to check easily and perform the investment decisions by the educational council or government. Especially, this school mapping is generated for basic educational schools in whole Myanmar. The information of school such as location, building, laboratory, electricity, drinking water and water supply, boys and girls, teachers, students, staffs and number of vacant positions are collected for each school and store by SQLite database. A new index structures is constructed by combining B-tree and inverted file to quickly retrieve the school data. The developed system will provide to understand easily the situation of the interested school and support decision making on the planning of future school development. The generated School mapping application can be performed everywhere by mobile phone with android version 4 and above.
