eLISS Data Collection App for Android

eLISS Data Collection App: Streamlining Field Data Collection

The eLISS Data Collection App is an Android-based application developed by ICAR-IASRI for efficient and accurate data collection in the field. This app aims to replace the traditional paper-based schedules used by enumerators in the Integrated Sample Survey (ISS) scheme. With all eight schedules of the ISS scheme integrated into the app, it provides a comprehensive solution for data collection.

One of the key features of the eLISS Data Collection App is its ability to draw a second-stage sample from the captured data. Using the list of households or enterprises collected in schedule-II as a sampling frame, the app simplifies the process of selecting random samples for further analysis.

The app allows enumerators to capture data directly on their Android devices, eliminating the need for manual data entry and reducing the chances of errors. The real-time survey monitoring feature enables supervisors and district nodal officers to verify the collected data, ensuring its accuracy and quality. States and Union Territories can also access and view the verified data.

Overall, the eLISS Data Collection App offers several advantages over traditional paper-based data collection methods. It provides real-time monitoring, improves data quality with fewer outliers, enables random sample selection, and facilitates the storage of large volumes of schedules.
