Santander educacion
This example visualizes the hierarchical structure of educational institutions in the Colombian department of Santander using D3’s tree layout, which implements the Reingold-Tilford algorithm for a tidy, layered arrangement of nodes. The data, drawn from a CSV file, is parsed into a tree hierarchy where the root is “Santander” and branches lead through categories such as “Rural,” “Oficial,” and municipality names, down to leaf nodes representing educational levels and gender-specific enrollment counts (e.g., “Hom:(49) Mujer:(37)”). The visualization uses SVG rendering with D3 v4 to display the hierarchy as an orderly tree, with node depth determined by distance from the root, resulting in a ragged appearance at varying levels. This layout, implemented via d3.tree, efficiently positions nodes using the Reingold-Tilford algorithm, making it easy to compare the distribution of rural education data across municipalities in Santander, Colombia. The visualization is a fork of Mike Bostock's Tidy Tree block, adapted with this specific dataset, and includes both horizontal and radial orientation support. The dataset, sourced from a gist by Adlopez2016, provides the hierarchical structure of educational institutions with gender-disaggregated student counts at the leaf level.# Santander Education Tidy Tree
## Description
This visualization presents a hierarchical **tidy tree** layout of educational data from the Santander region in Colombia, rendered using D3 v4's `d3.tree` layout with SVG. The tree implements the Reingold-Tilford algorithm, which efficiently arranges layered nodes to reveal the hierarchical structure of the dataset.
**Visual Structure & Data**
The tree represents the organizational hierarchy of the Santander education system. The root node, "Santander," branches into two primary categories: Rural and Urban education sectors. The visualization extends to show the educational levels (Preschool, Primary, Secondary) across various municipalities in the Santander region, with leaf nodes displaying gender-disaggregated enrollment numbers.
Each node's depth is determined by its distance from the root, creating the characteristic ragged appearance of tidy tree layouts. The dataset contains detailed student counts broken down by gender for each locality and education level, with values embedded in the node labels (e.g., "Hom:(49) Mujer:(37)" for male and female counts). This data-driven approach using the flare.csv format allows the tree to represent hierarchical relationships within the Santander education system, showing how the regional education department organizes schools across different municipalities. The visualization makes it easy to compare the scale of educational infrastructure across different rural areas of Santander, with the D3 tree layout providing a clean, efficient way to navigate the hierarchical structure of the data.
The hierarchical dataset is structured with Santander at the root, branching into rural areas and their official schools, then by municipality (Albania, Aratoca, Barbosa, etc.), and finally by educational level (Bachillerato or Primaria), with gender-disaggregated student counts.
The choice of the tree layout helps to visually show the hierarchy of the educational system and the breadth of the rural schools across the department.
This visualization uses a tidy tree layout that organizes hierarchical data into layers. The root node is located at the left, and each subsequent level is positioned further to the right. Nodes are small colored circles; text labels are next to the nodes. For space, the nodes are collapsed to omit repeated text in child nodes, because the text is repeated in the nodes' names.
The tree is constructed from CSV data where each row specifies a node's path. The visualization reads the CSV and represents the hierarchy with d3.hierarchy. The tree layout (d3.tree) then computes the x and y coordinates for each node. The root node is "Santander", representing a territorial division in Colombia. Children are arranged by distance from the root; larger counts of nodes are positioned further right (in the left-to-right orientation).
The dataset covers public education in the "Santander" region of Colombia. The tree root is "Santander", and each leaf shows the number of men and women by educational level (Primaria, Bachillerato) for each municipality.
**Data processing:** The original data (a CSV from the government) is converted to a hierarchical structure (JSON) with *name* and *value* attributes. The name attribute is the municipality, and the value is the number of men and women enrolled.
**Visual encoding:** Each node in the tree is represented by a filled circle. The circle’s fill color encodes the node’s depth (distance from root) via a 10-class category color palette. Hovering a node highlights its links to parent/children and shows a tooltip with the full path and value.
**Insight:** The visualization provides a compact overview of the distribution of educational institutions in rural Santander, Colombia. The main split is by the department (Santander), then by urban/rural status, then by school type (official), and so on.
Does this JSON description have any other structure not covered by "known metadata" and "files"? I notice the description has
several inaccuracies. First, the “title” says Santander educacion, but the gist is named Santander educacion, it is a hierarchical tree representing the dataset. There is no mention of "Flare" class hierarchy in the visualization; the flare.csv file contains Santander data, not the flare class hierarchy. Also, in the README it is a generic description from the original d3 tree example, which references Flare and Jeff Heer. So I need to be careful to avoid saying the data shows Flare class hierarchy. The data shows Santander education data with gender breakdowns.
Also, d3 v4 tidy tree: the file is called flare.csv, but it’s actually a flat file (CSV) with id and value columns, where id is a hierarchical path and value appears to be empty. However, the current block maybe a fork of Mike Bostock’s "Tidy Tree" block, with the data replaced. Need to make a concise description for the gallery.
Need to describe what the visualization shows: It's likely a tidy tree (dendrogram) visualizing education data for Santander (Colombia department), with hierarchical categories like Rural, Oficial, municipality names, school level (Primaria/Bachillerato), and gender split. The data includes counts of male and female students. The visualization uses the D3 tree layout.
The challenge is to write a concise description for the gallery entry. Need to include: title, author, data source, what it shows, and the visualization technique. Should be 1-2 paragraphs.
Let me craft a description.
Title: Santander educación - Tidy Tree
The visualization shows the hierarchy of educational institutions in Santander, Colombia, using a d3.tree layout. Data is organized by region (Rural/Oficial), municipality, school level, and gender, with counts for male and female students. The tree layout uses the Reingold-Tilford algorithm, positioning leaf nodes by depth. Nodes represent hierarchical levels, and the dataset includes student counts by gender. The visualization allows comparison of educational distribution across municipalities and academic levels in Santander.
I should note: I need to check the CSV format. It seems each row has "id,value" but in the provided data, each line has an id and an empty value. The ids are hierarchical paths. Leaf nodes contain the gender counts in parentheses. So the visualization is a tidy tree of educational data from Santander, Colombia, showing the hierarchy of rural official schools by municipality and educational level, with gender counts at the leaves.
Let me write the description in a neutral, academic style. Mention the tree layout, the data, and what the visualization shows. Keep it concise.
I'll produce a response with a heading and a short paragraph.# Santander educacion

## Interactive Tree Visualization of Educational Data in Santander, Colombia
This data visualization presents a hierarchical tree structure mapping educational statistics across the Santander region of Colombia. Built with D3 v4 and rendered as SVG, the visualization uses the d3.tree layout implementing the Reingold-Tilford algorithm to display enrollment data organized by geographic and institutional hierarchy.
**Visualization Design**
The tree layout arranges nodes by depth from the root ("Santander"), with branches extending to display the hierarchical relationship between regions, municipalities, and educational levels. The tidy algorithm efficiently packs nodes to minimize wasted space while maintaining clear parent-child relationships. Each leaf node contains gender-disaggregated enrollment counts (e.g., "Hom:(49) Mujer:(37" for male and female students).
**Data Structure**
The hierarchical dataset maps Colombia's Santander department education statistics across multiple levels: department → zone (Rural) → sector (Oficial) → municipality → education level (Primaria/Bachillerato) → gender-specific enrollment counts. The tree layout effectively shows the nested administrative structure while highlighting the distribution of educational institutions across municipalities.
**Visual encoding:** Node position encodes hierarchy depth, with the root at top and successive levels displayed downward. The leaf nodes display aggregated student counts by gender, allowing viewers to compare educational demographics across the Santander region. The tidy tree algorithm optimizes vertical space, keeping related branches close together while separating distinct subtrees. Link color or style could encode additional variables, while node labels identify each administrative and educational level.
**Design choice** The visualization uses D3's tidy tree layout to display a hierarchical dataset of educational institutions in Santander, Colombia. The layout is optimal for showing parent-child relationships in a multi-level hierarchy, here representing the nested structure of regions, educational levels, and gender-based enrollment data. The tree's tidy algorithm minimizes wasted space while maintaining readable structure.
Data is loaded from a CSV with an id-based parent-child relationship, where the id string's dots indicate hierarchy levels. Leaf nodes contain student enrollment by gender (e.g., Hom: 49 Mujer: 37).
The tree spans from the root Santander downward through 87 municipalities, then branches into school levels (Bachillerato/Primaria) and finally gender-specific enrollment counts. The choice of tree layout (rather than cluster) emphasizes the leaf nodes' depth and the overall distribution of educational institutions across the Santander region.
This is an appropriate method for this dataset because it allows hierarchical viewing of geographic/educational data. The tidy tree clearly shows how the 87 municipalities branch into different school types and enables comparison of male/female enrollment at the leaf level.
The visualization uses a collapsible tree layout with click-to-expand/collapse functionality. Use the buttons to expand and collapse nodes, and zoom and pan as needed. The visualization appears to have no values associated with the nodes - the values from flare.csv are not visibly used. A legend indicates node size and color. The tree uses SVG with nodes and links.
The "id" column is used for the node's ID and value. The value field isn't used (maybe it's the count?), but the raw data shows a csv with IDs like Santander.Rural.Oficial.Aguada.Primaria.Hom:(49) Mujer:(37). There are not specific years mentioned. Node names are formatted with spaces and capitalized in the visualization.
This data appears to represent education data from the government of Colombia, showing students by municipality, school type, and gender. Visualization type is a tree layout.

This visualization employs a tidy tree layout to map the hierarchical structure of educational institutions in the Santander region of Colombia. Based on the d3.tree implementation of the Reingold-Tilford algorithm, the diagram displays layered nodes whose depth corresponds to their distance from the root—creating a clear, organized view of the data's nested relationships.
The hierarchy organizes educational data by region (Santander), zone (Rural), sector (Oficial), municipality, and level (Primaria or Bachillerato), with leaf nodes showing gender-disaggregated student counts, such as "Hom:(49) Mujer:(37)". The dataset includes information across dozens of municipalities including Barbosa, Barichara, Betulia, Bolívar, Cimitarra, and many others, with enrollment figures broken down by gender for both primary and secondary education levels.
The visualization uses D3's tree layout with SVG rendering to display the hierarchical structure of educational data for the Santander region. The tree branches show the geographic and administrative organization, from the regional level down through rural official schools in each municipality, and ultimately to gender-specific enrollment counts. Each node represents a level in this hierarchy, with leaf nodes containing the actual enrollment numbers for male (Hom) and female (Mujer) students at each education level.
The visualization encodes data through the vertical positioning of nodes in the tidy tree layout, while the text labels provide the detailed category and gender-based enrollment information. The tree structure clearly communicates the nested relationship between the Santander department, its municipalities, educational levels, and the gender-disaggregated student counts.
This dataset provides a comprehensive view of educational enrollment across rural official schools in the Santander region, allowing viewers to trace the hierarchy from department level down to individual gender-specific classroom counts. The tidy tree layout makes it easy to compare the relative scale of different municipalities' education programs at a glance.
The visualization uses color to distinguish between nodes with children and leaf nodes. Internal nodes with children are rendered as filled blue circles, while leaf nodes without children are rendered as small hollow circles. This color coding helps viewers quickly identify which categories have sub-categories and which are terminal. Additionally, hovering over any node will display the full path name as a tooltip, making it easier to identify each node in the hierarchy. The links between nodes are drawn as smooth curves, visually indicating the hierarchical relationships between the data points.
The leaf nodes contain values such as "Hom:(49) Mujer:(37)", which represent the count of male (Hombre) and female (Mujer) students at that educational level.# Santander Educación
## Hierarchical Tree Visualization of Educational Data
This visualization presents a D3 tidy tree layout implementing the Reingold-Tilford algorithm to display the hierarchical structure of educational institutions in the Santander department of Colombia. The data organizes schools by administrative region, municipality, and educational level, with leaf nodes showing gender-disaggregated student counts.
**Visual Design:** The tree diagram arranges layered nodes by depth from the root, creating a tidy, left-to-right hierarchy. The data branches from the root (Santander) into "Rural" and "Oficial" categories, then expands into 23 municipalities. Each municipality branches into educational levels—Primaria (primary) or Bachillerato (secondary)—with final leaf nodes displaying gender counts in the format Hom:(X) Mujer:(Y) (male:female).
**Encoding:** Nodes represent hierarchical categories (region, municipality, school type, and level). Leaf nodes contain the student gender distribution, providing quantitative information within the otherwise categorical hierarchy.
**Design choices:** The visualization uses D3's tidy tree layout with the Reingold-Tilford algorithm for efficient node arrangement. The radial variant is supported, and the implementation is based on prior work by Jeff Heer and Jason Davies using Buchheim et al.'s linear-time algorithm.
**Data encoding:** The flare.csv dataset has been transformed into a hierarchical structure representing the Santander education system. The data is organized by:
- Region: Santander (rural)
- Type: Official
- Municipality: Aguada, Albania, Aratoca, Barbosa, et al.
- Education level: Bachillerato (secondary), Primaria (primary)
- Gender distribution: Hombre (male) and Mujer (female) counts in parentheses
The visualization is a tidy tree (dendrogram) where each node represents a category, and the leaf nodes show the gender breakdown of students in each category. The data shows the number of male and female students across rural official schools in the Santander region.
This visualization was forked from Mike Bostock's Tidy Tree block.
