Quick answer

A fieldwork register for sampling control: study title, sampling frame source, region or stratum, displacement status, quota cell, target and achieved counts, enumerator and visit details — one comparable dataset across collectors.

💡

About this template

Field studies break when five collectors write five formats. This register standardises the sampling and quota layer that makes datasets mergeable: study title, sampling frame source, region or stratum, displacement status, quota cell definition, target, achieved and outstanding counts, sampling unit ID, fieldwork date, enumerator name or code, GPS or location notes, response outcome and a refusal or contact-count field. One row per visit or contact attempt means week-two analysis does not require archaeology, and quota gaps are visible while the fieldwork is still running.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why separate observed from reported?
This register keeps quota truth and field truth apart: target, achieved and outstanding counts sit beside displacement status, so you know what the sample actually delivered.
Does this work offline?
Each submission needs connectivity; heavy offline fieldwork pairs the register with a paper tally keyed by the sampling unit ID.
How are records kept ethical?
Records carry unit IDs and enumerator codes rather than personal data; names stay out of the register by design.
Can several teams use one form?
Yes — the enumerator and region fields keep datasets merged but separable, so brief every team on the same quota cells first.
What does consolidation look like?
One row per contact attempt with the same quota columns, so counts roll up by cell without re-coding.
Can I give every field team its own form?
Yes — each field program gets its own free copy, so collectors from different sites stay in clean, separable datasets.
