MONITORING & EVALUATION

Data Collection and maintenance has become a necessity in recent years. Terra Analytics prides itself on representing statistical information that is delivered in both an accurate and timely manner. We provide services to create GIS based enumeration areas, data collection planning, recruitment and training manuals, data cleansing and collation through accurate statistical representation.

DESCRIPTION

We are adept at generating complex sampling frameworks, which provide the randomness required for accurate statistical representation. Quality Assurance is based on verification of a percentage of random samples, analysis of which helps profile various data collectors. We have innovated the process of survey management through the integration of tablets and the digital pen in order to create systems that are functional and manageable. Integration with GIS is achieved through geo-tagging of all information, using internet based geo-coding engines. Context specific map viewers allow users to view maps embedded in forms. Our solutions have been used extensively for quality of life, transport, property as well as FICA verification surveys.
