The two data files can be merged using variable "hid" as merging key. The dataset was generated as a fully-synthetic dataset. The model used to create the synthetic observations includes multiple procedures to avoid overfitting and data-copying. Also, the data used for training the model went through processes of sampling and recoding that make it impossible to link a synthetic observation to an actual observation. The dataset is thus safe for dissemination. It can be used with no restriction and is shared as open data.
