Poverty in Dominican Republic at Administrative Level 1

Data format: Shapefile

Coordinate system: Geographic

Theme keywords: CIESIN > Human Attitudes, Preferences, and Behavior > Consumer Behavior > Poverty
Abstract: The Small Area Estimates of Poverty and Inequality dataset consists of spatially referenced consumption-based measures of poverty and inequality for subnational administrative areas of various countries throughout Africa, Asia, Europe, North America and South America. These measures are derived, on a country-level basis, from a combination of census and survey data using small area estimation techniques developed for poverty mapping. The collection of data sets have been compiled, integrated and standardized from the original data providers into a unified, spatially referenced and globally consistent dataset. The data products include shapefiles (vector data), tabular datasets (in comma seperated values format) and centroids (comma seperated values file with latitude and longitude of a geographic unit and associated poverty estimates). Additionally, a data catalog (in Excel format) contains detailed information and documentation on each data set in the collection. The collection is produced by the Columbia University Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) in collaboration with a number of external data providers.

FGDC and ESRI Metadata:
Metadata elements shown with blue text are defined in the Federal Geographic Data Committee's (FGDC) Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Elements shown with green text are defined in the ESRI Profile of the CSDGM. Elements shown with a green asterisk (*) will be automatically updated by ArcCatalog. ArcCatalog adds hints indicating which FGDC elements are mandatory; these are shown with gray text.

Abstract:
The Small Area Estimates of Poverty and Inequality dataset consists of spatially referenced consumption-based measures of poverty and inequality for subnational administrative areas of various countries throughout Africa, Asia, Europe, North America and South America. These measures are derived, on a country-level basis, from a combination of census and survey data using small area estimation techniques developed for poverty mapping. The collection of data sets have been compiled, integrated and standardized from the original data providers into a unified, spatially referenced and globally consistent dataset. The data products include shapefiles (vector data), tabular datasets (in comma seperated values format) and centroids (comma seperated values file with latitude and longitude of a geographic unit and associated poverty estimates). Additionally, a data catalog (in Excel format) contains detailed information and documentation on each data set in the collection. The collection is produced by the Columbia University Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN) in collaboration with a number of external data providers.

Purpose:
To provide highly resolved subnational estimates of poverty and inequality for use by a wide user community for interdisciplinary studies of poverty, inequality and the environment.
