Web Survey Bibliography
Intercept field data collectors working in outdoor nvironments using electronic devices face a number of challenges, such as conducting interviews in bright sunlight, wind, and/or rain. Some in-field data collection even requires exposure to dirt, grime, and natural specimens. These interviewers need data collection devices that are lightweight, can be held in one hand or suspended from the neck, are protected from the elements, have outstanding battery lives, are easy to read in various lighting levels, and have large screens able to display an easy-to-read font and graphics. Researchers at ICF sought a data collection option that was both innovative and well-suited for conducting interviews in challenging environments without many of the cost and data security implications that can accompany more traditional CAPI implementations. Our solution was web-based surveys on cellenabled tablets (specifically 3G i-Pads). We will demonstrate a cell phone-enabled iPad set up to intercept anglers working from docks and beaches and on boats. The demonstration will review how visual aids will assist anglers and interviewers with the identification of various fish species, the use of the upcoming camera feature to capture a visual record of species that can later be confirmed by ICF fish biologists, and how the GPS function can be used to help assure interview quality and track members of a large field force. We will also demonstrate how networked scheduling applications can be used to direct interviewers to specific locations at specific times, as well as track progress toward a variety of specific interview quotas. Finally, we will demonstrate if the iPad can be configured to mimic ease of use and other functional advantages of the current clipboard paper and pencil system through the use of flexible comment fields and the ability to toggle across multiple ongoing surveys.
