Hello,
For the Burkina Faso 1993 DHS survey, I see that a lot of the clusters have repeated coordinates (230 clusters mapped to 124 unique points), with all clusters in Ouagadou having the same coordinates plus some other locations having duplicated coordinates (this is the case in the raw survey file not just the codebook). Can you help me understand why this is the case?
I'm wondering if these are accurate coordinates, or if they are the centroid of a town/area of the clusters. I cant find any information about this in the documentation that came with the files.
Regards,
Lyla
