village data of minor irrigation census

[Anand Dubey]

Hi everyone!! 

I need data of minor irrigation censuses from 1st to the latest one. I tried searching for it but only found the data of 6th round on data.gov. Could someone suggest me where I can find the others? 

Thanks!!

Hi Anand

Thanks for letting us know about this data set, I wasn't aware of it before.

I was able to find microdata from the 2nd-6th minor irrigation censuses (MICs) on data.gov.in itself. I couldn't find data for the 1st MIC. Caveats: (i) the unit of observation varies across the censuses, but the lowest level of geographic identification remains the village name throughout; (ii) most of the censuses (except the 5th one) are split into multiple files, so it may be a pain to download the files manually unless you know how to automate the process using python etc (I'm not aware of how to do that). 

Here are the details of the data sets I found:

Water-source level data

6^th MIC (2017-18; multiple files): https://www.data.gov.in/search?title=6th%20Minor%20irrigation%20census&sortby=_score&type=resources

 

5^th MIC (2013-14; single file): https://www.data.gov.in/resource/distribution-surface-flow-schemes-and-cost-construction-over-years-5th-minor-irrigation

 

 

Village-level data

4^th MIC (2006-07; multiple files): https://www.data.gov.in/search?title=4th%20minor%20irrigation%20census&type=resources&sortby=_score

 

3^rd MIC (2000-01; multiple files): https://www.data.gov.in/search?title=3rd%20minor%20irrigation%20census&sortby=created&type=resources

 

2^nd MIC (1993-94): https://www.data.gov.in/search?title=2nd%20minor%20irrigation%20census&type=resources&sortby=_score

Thanks and regards.

Yours sincerely

Thanks shiv, I didn't see that earlier. But later I also found that data on other rounds are also posted there only. I have collated it and can share it if someone wants.
