Summary:This report is structured as follows: an in-depth explanation of the FHSAE method is presented in section two. Section three reviews the sub-district level data used in this study, which includes imprecise TL-SLS and DHS direct estimates, as well as satellite imagery data used in this study. The variable selection method used for the FHSAE model in this model is explained in section four. Section five provides the results of the FHSAE exercise on poverty estimates, average real per capita consumption and welfare index, presenting them in the graphical maps. Section six concludes.
