Re: [datameet] Request for an Information regarding NSS

2023-11-08 Thread Emmerich Davies
As Nikhil said, the NSS is not a household-level panel.

On top of the IHDS that Nikhil mentioned, the ARIS-REDS and CMIE Consumer 
Pyramids are household panels, although the latter is not free and not 
always available institutionally.

Hi Karthick,

MoE has the data here: https://schoolgis.nic.in/

I believe Thej scraped it and posted it here: 
https://github.com/datameet/udise_schools. You should be able to get it 
from the ".../data" folder.

Re: [datameet] UDISE districts

2021-04-10 Thread Emmerich Davies
Hi Thej and Gautam,

>From what I know, Gautam is exactly right.  For example, in Delhi, the 
Directorate of Education maintains 13 education districts that do not 
correspond to the 10 administrative districts for Delhi. They are for 
management and administrative purposes within the Directorate of Education 
(see here: http://www.edudel.nic.in/mis/schoolplant/school_information.htm 
and look at by district).  I'm not sure if they maintain maps of these 
boundaries.

I can't speak for any other states.

Adding to Gautam and others approach beyond KA, you can also get lat/long 
for a lot of schools from here: https://schoolgis.nic.in/. I believe many 
on here have also pointed to that site. Scraping that data and matching to 
DISE data gets you ~85% of the schools.  DISE school codes minus the last 
two digits gets you villages, so you can then get another couple of percent 
by matching any schools with missing lat/longs that are in the same village 
as schools with lat/longs.

>From there you could aggregate up to the administrative district.

hth,
Emmerich

[datameet] Re: Data on polling station officers in the Lok Sabha elections

2020-10-03 Thread Emmerich Davies
The online appendix and README from Yusuf Neggers's AER paper using Vidhan 
Sabha polling booth worker data suggests he collected that data himself 
directly from the Office of the CEO: 
https://www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=10.1257/aer.20170404

You might want to ask him what the process was.  He might even be on this 
google group.

 Dear community members, 

 I hope everyone stays safe. I am looking for data about the polling 
 station officers in the Lok Sabha elections. As far as I know from 
 Compendium of Instructions 2019 Volume-I pages 127 to 129, there should be 
 the lists of information about the polling station officers such as name, 
 sex, place of residence, workplace, home constituency, designation, 
 office/department/institution they work, polling station that they are 
 assigned to, and the other team members (as each polling station gets a 
 team of officers). This data should be stored electronically, probably at 
 the district election offices. Any information about this data would be 
 much appreciated. Thank you very much for your consideration in advance. 

 Yours sincerely, 
 Kensuke

Hi Ken,

Along with the school directory here: 
http://schoolreportcards.in/SRC-New/SchoolDirectory/Directory.aspx, DISE 
also provides a teacher directory for four years with more detail on 
individual teachers.

hth and let me know if you have questions about accessing it,

Also just saw that you’re looking for data in low-income countries more 
broadly. The world bank’s living standards measurement surveys is the most 
comprehensive I know of.

[datameet] [Seeking Help] Income and Consumption Data for Developing Nations

2020-07-10 Thread Emmerich Davies
Hi Hemanth,

* In India, you might look at the NSS, too.
* In Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Nepal you might look at Household Income and 
Expenditure Surveys (HIES) although for Bangladesh and Nepal you have to 
request them from the census bureau and I believe they charge for individual 
and institutional use.
* Bangladesh here: http://203.112.218.65:8008/PageWebMenuContent.aspx?MenuKey=62
* Nepal here: https://microdata.worldbank.org/index.php/catalog/2301
* In Bangladesh you might also look at the RAND-Matlab survey (Matlab Health 
and Socieconomic Survey): 
https://www.rand.org/well-being/social-and-behavioral-policy/data/FLS/MHSS.html
