I couldn't find information or variables on the geo-ecological region of Nepal i.e., hill, terai, mountain for SPA 2021. Where can I locate these findings? As these are available for SPA 2015, I am sure they must be there somewhere. I also tried with GIS but had no luck and I couldn't find an online layer for intersections as well. Please help me. Thanks

Hello,

To get this variable you need to recode the district variable as follows:

recode district (101 102 103 301 302 303 402 403 601 602 603 604 605 701 702 703=1 Mountain) (104 105 106 107 108 109 110 114 304 305 306 307 308 309 310 311 312 401 404 405 406 407 409 410 411 501 502 503 504 505 506 606 607 608 609 610 704 705 706 707 =2 Hill) (111 112 113 201 202 203 204 205 206 207 208 313 408 507 508 509 510 511 512 708 709 =3 Terai), gen(ecoregion)

gen wt=facwt/1000000
tab ecoregion [iw=wt]

This weighted tabulation matches table 2.3.1 in the Final report.

Best,
