USGS Water Data for the Nation. The USGS National Water Information System (NWIS) contains surface-water, groundwater, water-quality, and water-use data collected. Rectangular Survey System is typically, and yet somewhat uniquely, a record of the American frontier spirit blended with the concept of government for the people. Albert White, U.S. Cadastral Surveyor, presents in this document a meticulous accounting of the vast story of public land surveying and registration.

For example, two analysts could produce reports from the same survey at the same time, but one analyst could not edit a survey while another is producing a report, since the editing could effect the report in ways the second analyst does not expect. • • View Prices. Web-based CATI (Computer-Assisted Telephone Interviewing) Software Traditional telephone interviewing requires that all the interviewers be in a central location to connect to a server over a local network. The Survey System's Web CATI Module works with our desktop CATI software and Web survey software to bring telephone interviewing online. Now your interviewers can work from anywhere they have a browser and an Internet connection. ![]() Interviewers log in to a particular study and see a Web page showing the next available telephone number, an opening script and any other information, such as a name that you have associated with that telephone number. You can also let them see the results of prior attempts to call that number and any comments left by themselves or other interviewers. Interviewers can make calls using standard telephones, VOIP or a feature such as Skype Extensions for Firefox, which lets them click on the phone number to make a call. They then click a button to start an interview, make an appointment to call someone back or record the result of the call attempt. Our Web CATI software lets you produce all the various live online detail and survey summary reports you need to effectively manage your project. These include total and per-hour results-by-interviewer, results per day or per attempt, the number of telephone numbers still active, cooperation rates, and more. ![]() The Survey System can automatically enforce quotas based on pre-existing information or questions in the interview.

Software for E-mail Surveys, Web Page Surveys, Online Surveys There are two ways to do online surveys using the Web/Internet or an intranet: • E-mail surveys • Web page surveys When using email surveys you send a survey to a list of respondents, and they reply with their answers. When using Web page surveys, you post your questionnaire on a Web page. People then visit that page and answer your questions. The Survey System's Web/Internet Survey Software Module includes both types of surveys. Email surveys are described on a separate page. Web page surveys are described here. Sample online surveys are presented below. As part of a comprehensive online survey software package, The Survey System's Web page questionnaire software offers sophisticated questionnaire logic features not found in most 'Web survey' software packages. These features mean higher quality data. After you collect your survey data, you can produce more impressive tables, charts, and text reports than you can with other packages. You can even produce reports online. Another benefit of this comprehensive web survey software solution is that you enter your question and answer choice text and any logic instructions only once. Then you can use them for Web page surveys, email surveys, paper questionnaires, and telephone interviews. All editions of The Survey System include the most commonly used survey statistics, including: • Percents • Medians • Means • Standard Deviations • Standard Errors • Chi-squares • Differences between Proportions These are enough for most researchers to establish significant differences between data points. Voice Capture Software & Recording Systems Modules Standard capture of comments and similar answers require a painstaking manual transcription process that is subject to errors and misinterpretations. For example, did your respondent say in response to a question about a TV news announcer. THAT’s an anchor man!!! Or did he say. That’s an anchor man?” A paper transcript probably won’t tell you. The Survey System’s Voice Capture Software Module can immediately tell you what your respondents really meant by recording answers in their own voices. Benefits of The Voice Capture Software Module of The Survey System The Voice Capture Software Module: • Records and plays back actual voices. • Captures the feeling and intensity of responses. • Creates dazzling presentations. • Saves time during interviews. • Playback-only software is available to offer to your clients. With the Voice Capture & Recording Software Module, you can also code each response based on its content and use these codes to produce numeric tables or to group similar responses together during playback. During playback, interviewees can be classified by up to four variables, such as age, sex, geography, income. Their comments are played back through a sound-equipped PC. Interviews can be done by phone or face-to-face with laptops or PDA's.
