Abstract:
|
Advances in statistical methodology and technology have fostered increased complexity in survey design, collection, and analysis. A panel of the National Academy of Sciences' Committee on National Statistics has recently issued report on the Agricultural Resources Management Survey which discusses aspects of this complex survey, and proposes state-of-the art methods for survey enhancements. Panel members and representatives of the U.S. Department of Agriculture will discuss the report and its implications for complex surveys.
