Patrick has pulled postcode data from ISIS for all our students. I now have a script which selects the students on a specific programme and for each, finds the district part of the UK postcodes
looks it up in a table of postcodes latitudes and longitudes and generates a kml PlaceMark so the whole set can be viewed as a layer in GoogleEarth.
Not sure what to make of the results, except that our students come from all over Britain.
I think the resolution of the locations (there are around 3000 districts in the UK) should not be a enough to be a breach of privacy. At present, only a plain marker is displayed- in future you could imagine a link to that student's data.
