The purpose of this data article is to describe the data and provide the methodological notes on the construction of availability, accessibility, and overall Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) performance index using a set of thirteen indicators for six metro cities in India. It also presents the details on survey design and the nature of data collected on WASH indicators in India Human Development Survey for 2004-05 (IHDS-I) and 2011-12 (IHDS-II). The principal component analysis (PCA) procedure was used in the construction of the WASH indices. The IHDS is the only survey that provides comprehensive data on WASH indicators for six metro cities in India (Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Hyderabad, & Bangalore). The IHDS has been jointly conducted by researchers from the National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER), New Delhi and the University of Maryland, the United States of America (USA). The database is hosted in the public repository at the Inter-University Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) and the reference number for IHDS-I and IHDS-II are ICPSR 22626 and ICPSR 36151 respectively. The data are publicly available through ICPSR. Interpretation of the present data can be found in the research article titled "Availability, accessibility, and inequalities of water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services in Indian metro cities" (Saroj et al., 2019) [9].
本数据文章的目的是描述这些数据，并提供关于使用一组13个指标构建印度六个大城市的供水、环境卫生和个人卫生（WASH）可及性、可达性及总体绩效指数的方法说明。文章还介绍了调查设计的细节以及在2004 - 2005年印度人类发展调查（IHDS - I）和2011 - 2012年印度人类发展调查（IHDS - II）中收集的关于WASH指标的数据性质。在构建WASH指数时使用了主成分分析（PCA）程序。IHDS是唯一一项提供印度六个大城市（德里、孟买、加尔各答、钦奈、海得拉巴和班加罗尔）WASH指标综合数据的调查。IHDS由新德里的国家应用经济研究理事会（NCAER）和美国马里兰大学的研究人员联合开展。该数据库存于政治和社会研究大学间联盟（ICPSR）的公共知识库中，IHDS - I和IHDS - II的参考编号分别为ICPSR 22626和ICPSR 36151。这些数据可通过ICPSR公开获取。对当前数据的解读可在题为《印度大城市供水、环境卫生和个人卫生（WASH）服务的可及性、可达性及不平等》的研究文章中找到（萨罗伊等人，2019年）[9]。
