Comparability
Apart from universe differences and slight differences in question wording, BOATNOMOTOR is comparable across samples.
The information in BOATNOMOTOR is taken from the household record, linked to the record of the woman respondent. This information applies to household residents, not temporary visitors, so researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2").
Comparability - Standard DHS
BOATNOMOTOR is a country-specific variable not included in the standard DHS household questionnaire.

The 2018 Bangladesh survey asked about ownership of "a canoe or boat without a motor."
