Objectives

In order to combine all of these factors, our group has decided to find the most child-friendly elementary school areas. To achieve this goal, we will attempt to run different analysis tests, including definition queries, selecting by attribute, and buffers. Each of our group members is responsible for testing a different aspect of child friendliness (according to the UNICEF document "BuildingChild Friendly Cities) within a 1 mile radius of elementary schools within the City of Gainesville:


Nick and Alana: Registered sex offenders
-Be protected from exploitation, violence, and abuse
-Walk safely in the streets of their own


Nandi: Libraries, Activity and Cultural Centers
-Participation in family, community, and social life
-Participation in cultural and social events

Danielle: Parks, Gardens, Youth Organizations

-Have green spaces for plants
