In the 2007 DRC DHS the variable v024 (province) is coded (20,30,40,50,61,62,63,70,80,90). In the hard copy of the survey there is a field for province to be entered, but not the name/value association. In order to figure out which numerical value matched the province name I did the following:
tab v024 ADM1_NAME if v007==2007
I included v007==2007, because I also have the 2013/14 DRC DHS in my data which was labeled.
This code works to figure out the name of 10 of the provinces, but there is conflicting information. One province was not assigned a numerical value. Instead it was assigned the character name of the province 'orientale' when running the crosstab between province and ADM1_NAME 'orientale' is assigned to 'Kinshasa' which is a city-province across the country from the province 'orientale'.
Can you please explain to me what the value 'orientale' in v024 represents in the 2007 DRC DHS? Please see attached screenshot.
Thanks
