STATcompiler: The <strong>DHS</strong> STATcompiler (www.statcompiler.com) is an online database<br />

tool that allows users to create customized tables with data from about 90 countries<br />

and over 200 indicators. STATcompiler produces uniform estimates from a single<br />

computer program for all <strong>DHS</strong> datasets with just a click of a mouse. STATcompiler also<br />

allows users to visualize and explore data in column charts, line graphs, maps, and<br />

scatterplots.<br />

The HIV/AIDS <strong>Survey</strong> Indicators Database is similar to the STATcompiler but<br />

includes only indicators related to HIV. The HIV/AIDS indicators collected in <strong>DHS</strong><br />

and AIS surveys will soon be merged into the STATcompiler web utility.<br />

Further dissemination of survey data is also achieved through the publication of additional<br />

reports. Of particular relevance for program and policy purposes is the <strong>DHS</strong> Comparative Report<br />

series. These reports provide information across survey countries and can contribute greatly to the<br />

policy debate through the exhaustive view they provide on a particular situation in a large number of<br />

countries. Analytical Reports are also published and provide rigorous analysis of survey data.<br />
