The objective is to incorporate these results into the poverty mapping approach put forward by Elbers et al. (2003). The estimators presented here have been implemented in version 2.5 of POVMAP, the custom-made poverty mapping software developed by the World Bank.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOCAPITA CONSUMPTIONDEVELOPMENT RESEARCHESTIMATORSGEOGRAPHIC TARGETINGHOUSEHOLD INCOMEINCOMEINDEPENDENT VARIABLESMATRICESMATRIXPOVERTY ALLEVIATIONPOVERTY INDICATORSPREDICTIONPROBABILITIESPROBABILITYRARESEARCH METHODSRESEARCH WORKING PAPERSSAMPLE SIZESTANDARD ERRORSSTATASURVEY DATATARGETINGYIELDSGLS Estimation and Empirical Bayes Prediction for Linear Mixed Models with Heteroskedasticity and Sampling Weights : A Background Study for the POVMAP Project10.1596/1813-9450-7028
