This section provides information about the structure and use of the Fort Bend ISD, TX K-12 Analytics tools and data. The Fort Bend ISD, TX K-12 Analytics uses the School District GeoDemographic Information System (SDGIS) integrated software and database package. Using GIS technologies, SDGIS is developed for use by schools, school districts, education agencies and stakeholder organizations. ProximityOne develops, deploys and supports SDGIS tailored to the individual school/education agency structure and needs. Individual SDGIS packages are structured around a set of data that are unique in geographic scope and typically focused on one or a set of school districts.

With the CV XE GIS software running, click Settings>Start-up INI. The Setting form appears as shown in this section of the User Guide. Modify the Key edit box and the Start-up GIS project. The values for these two settings are provided separately. After adding the two values, click the Apply Update and Save Settings buttons and close the Settings form. Now, when the CV XE GIS software is started the correct authorized CV software features are enabled and the custom GIS project automatically opens when CV starts. Optional Add-on Features .. goto top Student Analytics and Predictive Analytics are available as optional additional features. Software features are enabled in the CV software. Student Analytics The Student Analytic software feature enables geospatial analysis of students by location. Student addresses are geocoded and the corresponding point shapefile is added to the GIS project. A range of student attributes are included in the data record (demographics, school, grade, performance data). Analytical reports supplement the GIS analyses. Student location data are important in applications that include school attendance zone realignment. Student characteristics may be analyzed over time. Student geocoding may be done internally without releasing confidential data. Redistricting; Creating/Modifying Attendance Zones The Redistricting software feature enables creating or modifying school attendance zones. This feature enables manual creation/modification of attendance zone boundaries saved as shapefiles. Feeder patterns may optionally be established. A geocoded students shapefile is required for use of the redistricting feature. Attributes of students may be selected and summarized by attendance zone. New, possibly multiple alternative zones may be added to the GIS project for alternative scenario review. Attendance zone summary reports supplement the GIS analyses. Predictive Analytics The Predictive Analytics software feature enables development of projected enrollment by school and grade with selected demographic breakdowns. Standard 5 year annual projections may be extended to 10 years. Projections may be done internally using a modeling feature without releasing confidential data. Alternative scenario projections may be developed with different assumptions. Projections may be integrated into the school (point) and/or school attendance zone (polygon) shapefiles, mapped and geospatially analyzed.
