Following is a response from DHS Senior Sampling Specialist, Ruilin Ren:
Regarding the DRC 2007, the stratification was given in the appendix A, urban was slit by two categories, and the rural, since Kinshasa has only Statutory city, so there were 34 sampling strata. But the data file may not give the two categories of urban. Crossing V024 and V025 was not correct for the stratification. If you want to know which stratum is which, produce a frequency table on number of clusters by using the v024 and the stratification variable, compare it with the sample allocation table, you will know exactly which stratum is which.
Regarding the Uganda 2011, it is true that the appendix B did not give the stratification details, but the sample allocation table in appendix A gives the stratification because the sample was allocated by stratum. V024 crossing V025 will give the correct stratification.
