== Guidelines ==


===Interview scheduling===
<div id="chk_surveyprotocols"></div>
* Is there a particular time of day when respondents are more / less likely to be available?
* What is the most effective way to communicate with respondents and schedule appointments?


=== Access to infrastructure ===
== Related Pages ==  
* Is there electricity?
See here for other important [[Check Lists|check lists]].
** How frequent are blackouts? Are generators available?
** Do teams need to carry fuel and/or generators?
* Will there be any internet access?
** Are mobile internet connections (dongles) available?
** Is there mobile data coverage?
* How is the coverage of mobile phone networks?
** Check availability of any common networks, advise field teams accordingly
 
===Sampling ===
* Does the sampling protocol work well in the field? (for more details on developing the protocol, see [[Sampling & Power Calculations|Impact Evaluation Sampling]])
* Is the replacement strategy effective?
* What challenges are enumerators likely to face? What clarifications need to be made in the [[Enumerator Training]]?
* If working from an existing sampling frame, is it up to date?
* If doing a listing, how much time should be built into the field plan? How will you ensure that no sampling units (e.g. households, firms, traders) are skipped?
 
===Geo-data===
* Will you use the tablet or separate GPS?
** If GPS unit, test protocol for saving with filenames that include unique ID linked to respondent.
** How long does it take to lock in a signal? How accurate is the data point?
