Satellite-aided survey sampling and implementation in low- and middle-income contexts: a low-cost/low-tech alternative.
Marco J HaenssgenPublished in: Emerging themes in epidemiology (2015)
This low-cost/low-tech satellite-aided survey sampling approach can be useful for student researchers and resource-constrained research projects operating in low- and middle-income contexts with high survey implementation costs. While achieving transparent and efficient survey implementation at low costs, researchers aiming to adopt a similar process should be aware of the locational, technical, and logistical requirements as well as the methodological challenges of this strategy.
