Description

Definition
GEO_LS2004 (V101_LS2004) indicates the region of Lesotho where the respondent was interviewed. DHS regions in the 2004 Lesotho survey are equivalent to divisions.

Other sample years have their own sample-specific geography variables. There is also an integrated variable, GEO_LS2004_2014, that provides spatially consistent units over time.

A GIS map for GEO_LS2004 (in shapefile format) can be downloaded from the DHS Program Spatial Data Repository [URL omitted from DDI.] Boundaries page.
