IHGISUG2002POPAGG1P

(IHGISUG2002POPAGG1P)
Uganda 2002 agricultural census linkage (IHGIS), level 1 probability
Return to IHGIS geography variables list

IHGISUG2002POPAGG1P is a 6-digit numeric variable with 2 decimal places.

Description

IHGISUG2002POPAGG1P reports the probability that a DHS sample cluster was placed in the correct IHGIS geographic unit from the Uganda 2002 population and agricultural censuses in the complementary variable IHGISUG2002POPAGG1. This variable was created using GPS data associated with the specific IHGIS sample. See more information on our user note on the IHGIS-DHS linkages.

The census-to-DHS geography crosswalk variable uses a 2-kilometer (for urban areas) or 5-kilometer (for rural areas) buffer around each DHS sample cluster, to account for cluster displacement (a confidentiality measure employed by The DHS Program). These buffers are then overlaid on first-level geographic units from published census tables. If the buffer crosses the boundaries of two or more first-level geographic units, we report the code for the geographic unit with the highest placement probability index.

IHGISUG2002POPAGG1P reports the placement probability index to indicate the likelihood that the cluster was placed in the correct census geographic unit. If the entire buffer area falls within a single administrate unit, IHGISUG2002POPAGG1P is assigned the highest possible value of 100 percent. If a buffer area straddles more than one first-level geographic unit, the placement probability index has a lower value. Tabulation geographies with smaller units (e.g., districts) have lower placement probability index percentages, on average, compared to tabulation geographies with larger units (e.g., provinces).

Comparability

A code of 0 means that the respective DHS cluster does not have associated location information. If this is the case, the corresponding geographic unit variable will also be coded as 0. Codes for this variable will otherwise fall between 1 and 100.

Comparability - Standard DHS

IHGISUG2002POPAGG1P is a contextual variable that uses census geography data from the IPUMS IHGIS database and survey-specific GPS coordinates from the DHS Program.
