Re: [datameet] Extracting NSSO data

2018-08-13 Thread Chandrasekhar S.
Greetings!

If you purchased data from NSSO it comes with a program (nesstar) that
extracts the data for you. Use this program and it will extract to
whichever format you would like including STATA.

Hope this helps.

 Sajjad and Arun,

 Thanks for your replies. I have looked into using OSM as a source, but
 I need accurate temporal data. As OSM is user generated, changes to the map
 do not necessarily represent the actual date of construction. Changes are
 only recorded when a user notices a road has changed, and because PMGSY is
 a rural program, these road (most of which are under 1km) are often not
 recorded.

 But maybe I'm missing something. I'll look into it again. Maybe I'll
 write a grant to hire some folks to go through these OSM files and match
 them to the 1+ lakh PMGSY projects.

 Again, thanks for your input.

Re: [datameet] Phonetic Similarity

2018-08-13 Thread Venkata Pingali
Soundex is not enough. We went through metaphone and
double-metaphone as well. The last showed the best
performance when combined with simple ways to reduce
the search space (e.g., names that start with the same
alphabet).

But it still had too many false positives and negatives. We ended up
using a much simpler approach of manually labeling Top N most
frequent names.

[datameet] Phonetic Similarity

2018-08-13 Thread Pradeep Bhatt
Hi All,

What is the best way to know if two words are phonetically similar

e.g *Some similar *words

Pradeep - Pradip
Thakkkar - Thakkar
Rathod - Rathor
Swetha - Sweta
bhen - ben
Sumandev - Sumandeb

*Non - Similar*
Ramesh - Rajesh

This is needed for spelling mistakes introduced when translating from
indian languages to English.

Does Soundex work well for Indian names ?

Re: [datameet] Extracting NSSO data

2018-08-13 Thread GALEN PATRICK MURRAY
Hi Tarun,

Sachin is correct you use the layout file to identify which position in the 
string of characters correspond to which variables. Even though I'm an R 
user I think this extraction is more easily done in STATA. I've attached my 
STATA code for the 68th round extraction 

Since the NSSO data are samples, the multiplier acts as a survey weights so 
you can get population level estimates based on the sampled survey 
responses. Look at the readme (attached) for more information on how these 
multipliers are used to calculate survey weights (especially this part):

 For generating subsample-wise estimates based on data of all 
subrounds taken together, either Subsample-1 households or 
Subsample-2 households are to be considered at one time.  
Subsample code is available in the data file. 
(Please see layout of data).   
  
 Apply final weight (or all-subround multipliers) as follows :
 
 final weight = MLT/100,   if NSS=NSC
  = MLT/200otherwise.

Also, I found this blog  
very 
helpful for explaining NSSO data, the comments in particular may ask and 
answer common questions that you have. You can even write to the author and 
he seems generally quick to respond. Good luck!

Final 

[datameet] Found a bigger directory of India - Villages

2018-08-13 Thread Naraina aka Dilip Damle
Hello, 

In the process of trying to combine and study the other sources of a 
comprehensive directory of Indian villages I stumbled in to this. 


https://www.dbtdacfw.gov.in/

On this website go to DOWNLOAD _ MASTERS and you can directly download A 
masyer at every level from State to Village. 


The village list contains  7,10,319 Entries .. at least about 50,000 more 
than other single source. 

Downloading is easy .. no scraping required.


For the benefit of New People the other Known sources were 

1. Census
2. Local Government Directory
3. Rural Ministry data
4. Water ministry habitation data.

Update as I am writing this 

Ran "Remove Duplicates" On that file and found about 8000 absolute 
duplicates after removal 

7,02,068 Villages Remain .. Still substantially more than other 
sources. 


Note : I have not yet studied the masters for Veracity.
