TLDHS2016 Outline Sampling frame and training process Fieldwork and data processing Advantages Challenges
Sampling frame and training process Sampling Frame:2015 Timor-Leste Population and Housing Census, First Stage: 129 urban and 326 rural clusters selected, Second Stage: 26 households per cluster were selected. Training Pilot and field work ( PAPI - Paper Assisted Personal Interview, CAPI Computer Assisted Personal Interview, Manual, role playing, practice. First activity using CAPI A system to help interviewers, supervisors and the central office to collect, supervise and monitor the fieldwork operation EA s Maps and for GPS Locating household Four modules/sub-systems defined Preparation files interviewers, households, clusters Interviewer data collection Supervisor tracking of data being collected Central Office, monitor fieldwork

Int 5 Int 2 Repair/upgrades Interviewer s System Updates, Data Sharing & Transfer to supervisor Supervisor s System Screen Reports Supervisor Supervisor Data Transfer & Updates Central Office System Reports Central Office
Central Office System Components Menu Application Receive clusters from supervisors via internet Reports & structure checking by cluster Run secondary editing programs by cluster and modify errors Run field check tables Monitor fieldwork operation by cluster or supervisor Review interviewer notes for cluster Supervisor 1 Supervisor n Supervisor 2
ADVANTAGES Improve data quality (skips and consistency checks) Reduce time and costs ( editing and data entry process )
CHALLENGES Electricity access Limited Internet in remote area Data security during data collection, transfer, and storage. External data backing .
Plan 2020 census Training No PAPI CAPI ( Integrated all material , effective ,Use android, GPS) Field works, Support team allocated by region Monitoring, By GPS signal Transferring data, by case when done find internet connection automatically
