[datameet] NSSO Rural Price/Wage Data

2014-03-22 Thread Fenella C
Hi All, 

I'm currently working with the Rural Price/Wage data (the questionnaire is 
here: http://mospi.nic.in/Mospi_New/upload/nsso/fod/Schedule_RPC.pdf), 
which I got from the NSSO. I was wondering if anyone here has any 
experience working with this data? The data is unfortunately not well 
documented, and I need to know what the state/district codes correspond to 
(for matching with other survey data), and similarly for the variable 
source code in the data. I've already tried asking their Data Processing 
Division for more information, but have not yet received a response. 

Many thanks,
Fenella

[datameet] India 2001 census data village-wise

2014-02-28 Thread Fenella C
Hello everyone, 

I am wondering if any of you have the village-wise 2001 Indian census data 
in a spreadsheet (or similar) format? I am basically looking for 
information at the village level from the 2001 census (e.g., population of 
the village, number of households in the village, etc.)

The data is available online at the census website 
here 
http://www.censusindia.gov.in/Census_Data_2001/Village_Directory/View_data/Village_Profile.aspx
 
but it is not available in a spreadsheet. I have already tried web scraping 
the data, but it is painfully slow, so I'm wondering if I can find it 
elsewhere.

Many thanks,
Fenella
