India bridge is a collection of Stata ado programs and datasets tracking district changes in India as between 1951-2011.
All state and district codes are in sync with the administrative atlas (inside the docs folder in this repo).
- /ado contains
indiabridge.ado, a Stata program that assigns district & state level identification given a Census year. - /data contains a bridge/crosswalk Stata .dta, and an Excel file that can be used to track these changes.
- /docs contains relevant references and documentation used to build india-bridge.
- /releases contains compressed archives of the Stata programs, which can be downloaded and placed in the user's ado directory.
Download the zip from the releases section and extract it to your Stata ado directory.
On Windows, this will be found under C:\ado\personal.
On Mac/Linux, this directory is under ~/ado/personal
Running help indiabridge in Stata will pop-up a dialog with syntax and examples for use.
- Extend functionality to accept a vector of years as input and assign the appropriate identifier
- Add compatibility with the [Local Government Directory, India (LGD)][https://lgdirectory.gov.in/]
