Description

GEO1_ SD2014 identifies the household's state of residence within Sudan in the 2014 MICS survey. States are the primary level of geography in Sudan.

The first three digits of GEO1_ SD2014 provide the country code; the last three digits specify the geographic unit within the country. Leading zeros are used when the geographical unit within the country requires less than a three-digit code. Other geography variables for Sudan includes spatiotemporally harmonized GEO1_SD and sample specific geography from GEO1_SD2010.

A GIS map (in shapefile format) corresponding to GEO1_SD2014 is available on the GIS Boundary files page. The full set of geography variables for all MICS samples and countries can be found at IPUMS MICS Geography.
