  12. Census Preparations Enumeration Including: Questionnaire Design Data capture Census Results CSPro

  13. Data capture ………. is that painful interval between enumeration and evaluation of the data

  14. Data capture ? Not so good news …… No panacea ! Good news …… there are techniques which can assist, & choices – are relatively few. a) Internal b) Outsource a) Keying b) Scanning – of some sort + Keying

  15. Choice 1. a) Keying – still has a place b) Scanning – of some sort + Keying Considerations • Timeframe for producing results • Type of Questions / Enumerator or Self Completion • Questionnaire Design / Implications for Enumerators • Accuracy ?? – of completion / of data capture • ANTICIPATED CONDITION OF QUESTIONNAIRES • SKILLS AVAILABLE

  16. Scanning. When the Enumeration is over, what happens next? Images & Data Export to CSPro for data cleaning & analysis Validation Key completion

  17. OMR + Keying “Intelligent” Scanning (Image + Data) Validation of Data Confirm /complete Key from Image Export data

  18. OMR / Key Correction Advantages Quickest, simplest data capture method for well completed forms Enumerator only needs to mark HB Pencil + Eraser Appropriate level of technology for current IT resources Cost competitive solution – known / one time OMR

  19. OMR Without question, OMR is the fastest & easiest way to capture data IF the Questionnaire is filled out correctly =========================================== It is easier to train 30,000 enumerators to mark than it is to train them to correctly write, & accurately position characters 5

  20. Data Accuracy – at scanning OMR – the scanner will recognise this 99.99% of the time IT Resources – current / available skills Database Programming & Management VB.net / Csharp etc program development

  21. Choice 2. a) Internal b) Outsource • Is there a capable & willing partner available? • Is this really a potential opportunity for CSO data capture resource building? At what stage of IT resource development are CSO? A third way? Outsource scanning / CSO Key Correction !!

  22. Established 1969 Milton Keynes, UK • Approx. 200 employees • Manufacturer and supplier, world-wide, of automated data capture technology and solutions. • Specialists in swift, accurate and secure data entry for mission critical projects • Examinations • Voter Registration • Census • Elections • Scanners, specialised forms, software

  23. DRS Scanning Systems DRS PS900 Potential Scanning Speed: Up to 8,000 double sided forms per hour Full Image + OMR Data Anticipated throughput: 3,000 forms per hour

  24. DRS PS900 OMR / Image technology permits: Real time OMR Electronic Archiving of image Key Correction from image ICR/OCR – “post process” OMR + Key Correction from Image ICR + Key Correction from Image

  25. DRS Prints more than 200 million specialist forms a year

  26. DRS Software Division

  27. DRS provides: • Experience from past census projects • Guidance in all aspects of the data capture (IT infrastructure, Work flow, Project Mgmt.) • Design & Print Questionnaires • Scanners • Customised data capture and key correction software (OMR / ICR or a combination) • Training & Support
