German Index of Socioeconomic Deprivation (GISD)
This repository contains data of the The German Index of Socioeconomic Deprivation (GISD). With GISD our aims were to develop a regional socioeconomic deprivation index for Germany that (1) can be used to analyse regional socioeconomic inequalities in health and (2) provides a basis for explaining regional health differences in Germany.
Originally the GISD data archive was submitted to GESIS Datorium. But as we plan to update GISD anually when new data from www.inkar.de is available, it will be hosted at github.
If you need help with GISD please feel free to contact FG 28 of RKI or file an Issue at GitHub.
For details see the GISD Homepage.
Please note: Currently, we do NOT advise to use the index Revision 2019 due to a limited comparability with the older revisions that we are investigating (with a currently limited capacity) A line I wrote on my local computer 25.04.2022
