Then, select the region from which you need data. After selecting the appropriate region for your country of interest, you will see a page similar to that of the attached image.
Please note that by default, the option to download GPS data is not visible. You must click "Show GPS Datasets" in the circled area. Clicking this will refresh the page with a new column of checkboxes which will allow you to request GPS data. Please request the data and provide the necessary project description/justification. Once this is in the system, we will be able to approve the request.]]>tfish-DHS2017-10-27T15:44:53-00:00Re: How to Access GPS Data

You will need to log back in, select your project and go to the link:
"Request additional countries/datasets for this project"
Then do the following:
-- Choose "South and Southeast Asia"
-- Click on "Show GPS datasets" and click "yes"
-- Select Timor-Leste in the GPS column
-- Click "save selections"
-- Enter justification for GPS datasets
-- Click "submit dataset request"
Then someone at DHS will need to approve your request.

I have followed your instruction and sent the request for GPS data of Ethiopia. According to the Dataset Request Confirmation, I should receive an email notice within 2 business days confirming that the request is reviewed but it was not the case. I have then tried to resend the request but still with no response in another two business days.
Can you help me with this? I am in an urgent need of the data to continue my research.
Thank you in advance.

https://userforum.dhsprogram.com/index.phpindex.php?t=rview&goto=19351&th=6448#msg_19351
The DHS 2003-04 GPS datasets do not seem to be available for Madagascar even though the Stata file contains cluster numbers, regions and cluster altitude. I have already sent an email to gpsprojects@dhsprogram.com but the only answer I received is "it's not currently available". No information on why, when it will be etc. Is there any other way to obtain the GPS datasets for the clusters of DHS 2003-04?
Thanks

Due to data quality issues, the GPS for the Madagascar 2003 DHS will not be released.
