For Philippines DHS 2017, survey datasets are available to select for download but the Geographic Datasets are grayed out with no checkbox for selection for download-- see screenshot in uploaded file. Need the geographic dataset (shapefile) to get lon-lat coordinates of the household clusters for matching with satellite imagery. How can we get access to these? Thank you for the assistance!

I suspect you are not approved for GPS datasets for the Philippines. GPS datasets are a separate approval process. Please log back into your account and submit request for GPS datasets.

We now have repositories of code written in Stata and SPSS available on Github. Please reference these code repositories as a resource for code for matching or calculating DHS indicators. The code repositories can be found at:
