Dear User,
Here is a response from Dr. Shea Rutstein,
Quote:
The wealth index file NPWI31 needs to be merged with the standard recode file NPIR31. Then means can be calculated for the clusters. However, I do not know to which district the clusters belong. There is also a variable SDEVREG, which gives the development regions, and SWARD, but I am not sure what it represents.

Please feel free to post again if you have additional questions. I will also refer your post to our GIS team to see if they can provide further assistance. Thanks!
