Hi all,

for our project we have gained access to Nepal SPA data as well as geocodes for the health facilities. We will calculate exposures based on the location of the health facilities, so that we would like to merge geo-information to the information in the health facilities dataset.

We went through all tutorials but could not find any information as to how we can link these two resources:

- in the SPA datasets, we seem to have an identifier called "FACIL" --> however, we can't find any such identifier in the geodata. Here, instead, we have an identifier called "SPAID". While we understand that the SPAID is composed of several components, also only the ID part of the SPAID ("integer cluster identification number") does not correspond to FACIL from the SPA datasets.

Does anyone here have experience in working with the SPA geocoded data?

Thank you in advance for your time and help!
