Day 15/100: Mapping education access in Sierra Leone 🎓
Client project (2021) for Fab Inc: How far are children from schools?
Approach: #MapboxGL + Isochrone API to calculate realistic walking times (not straight-line distance). Generated 15/30/60-minute zones from each school location across actual terrain.
