๐Ÿง  How It Works

You enter:

  • State-level value (e.g., % of institutional deliveries from NFHS)
  • Contextual inputs:
    • Health infrastructure (low/average/high)
    • Road access (poor/average/good)
    • Tribal/SC/ST population density (high/medium/low)

The calculator multiplies the state value by three factors to provide a district-specific estimate.


๐Ÿ“ Example: Chitrakoot, Uttar Pradesh Assume state value is 72.4% for institutional deliveries, with:

  • Low infra (0.9)
  • Average roads (1.0)
  • High tribal/SC/ST density (0.9)

Result: 72.4 ร— 0.9 ร— 1.0 ร— 0.9 โ‰ˆ 58.6% (adjusted estimate)
