Description

Definition

GEO_IA1998 (V101_IA1998) indicates the region of India where the respondent was interviewed. DHS units in the 1998 India survey are equivalent to regions.

Other sample years have their own sample-specific geography variables. There is also an integrated variable, GEO_IA1992_2015, that provides spatially consistent units over time.
