6 years ago Hi Jennifer,
Sorry for the delay. While I'm not an expert on the statistical data side, I made an attempt at what I thought might be possible for subnational statistics. I highlighted those in yellow from your list, which is a good place to start given that they are Tier 1. While it's highly probable that most countries (or only a few) currently have the capacity and/or capability in producing subnational data, examples of countries that do offer lower level geographic data can serve as a model of best practice and indicate the interest in subnational data from different sectors within a country.
Some indicators may have regional data, either consistently across a country, or selectively for areas of interest. Examples of indicators that fall into this category may include (2.2.1, )
Indicators like (2.1.2, ) likely collect data at higher levels of reporting, which may make disaggregating the data more challenging and, in some cases, impossible.
Indicators like 3.6.1 make the most sense at collecting at subnational level so the preventive measures can be taken. In the U.S., this information is reported by the States for lower level governments. In searching, NIH has a paper on "Variations in sub-national road traffic fatality trends in a low-income country" where Pakistan is the case study.
On 4.b.1 on scholarship, it notifications are sent by mail, a match to the postal code or village name could be done to have a more localized view of the results. Similarly, 4.c.1 has similar characteristics if training records exist.
5.b.1 - Mobile phone ownership could be linked to a billing address (web payments make this more difficult if a mailing address is not required). Disaggregating gender mobile phone ownership is more problematic but could possibly be harvested from social media data inputs.
For 6.1.1 - I would hope that subnational governments would know and promote their improved water circumstances. UNICEF and WHO report some large regional values in part of Africa in one of their recent 2017 reports.
7.1.1 should also have the potential to link location based on billing address for electricity services.
8.5.2 on unemployment rate must have local values for some of the data collected. The World Bank ILO shows country comparisons; Disaggregation may provide further details.
Other possible indicators associated with billing addresses or similar linkages include: 8.10.1 (There may be GPS locations for ATMs), 8.10.2, 17.6.2
11.1.1 on proportion of slum inhabitants is under work by several external groups. The results should be monitored and studied.
15.1.1 on forested land can be calculated with imagery use compared to subnational boundaries.
This is a very quick effort to provide a little input. I hope this is helpful.

Tim, I know you are preparing for GGIM. I'm hoping you can help me with an initial list of global indicators for which subnational estimates may be available. If it may be of assistance to you, I have selected among tier 1 indicators for which we have reported the national statistic. Of course, this means I am missing several other indicators that might fit our interest, but I am hoping to get your early read so that our discussions with cities (30 at the moment) may continue to progress, even with crude sketches of possibilities. Sincerely, Jennifer
