Abstract

Classic sampling theory textbooks do not devote a considerable amount of attention to the necessary activities between designing the sample and estimating the parameters of the variables of interest. This disconnect is mainly because the methods used for these activities are often poorly developed. However, these phases of the survey have a considerable impact on both the cost and quality of the results. This chapter presents the various activities that occur during data collection and processing and how they should be organized and conducted.
