Land Data Collection Methodology Survey - Quiz


Welcome back to Hanley Wood Market Intelligence! The following survey is intended for land status researchers that have participated in our data collection effort at least once before, and therefore may be able to contribute their experiences regarding the effectiveness of the map books provided by Hanley Wood. If you did not receive a Map Book for our 2nd quarter Land Status Data Collection, please exit out of this survey, as this is optional material which will aid us to better serve our land status researchers in future data collections.

Thank you very much for Read moreyour time; your thoughts and suggestions will be read, and we will seriously consider them as we continue to improve your experience while working with us during the data collection process.

Sincerely,

The Hanley Wood Market Intelligence Team

    • C.

      N/A – I did not use the Map Books

    Explanation
    If you determine that the boundaries in the Map Book are different than the boundaries that you perceive, you should use your perceived boundaries for collecting data. This means that you rely on your own understanding and interpretation of the boundaries rather than the boundaries presented in the Map Book.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    When you discover the project boundary lines are not accurate in the Map Book, you;

    • A.

      Collect the data within the boundaries provided only and keep your thoughts to yourself

    • B.

      Reach out for your local Hanley Wood contact and ask him/her how to proceed

    • C.

      Use the boundaries you believe are accurate and do not inform anyone of the discrepancy

    • D.

      Collect the data within the boundaries you know to be accurate and send the individual Map Book page back to your Hanley Wood contact after redrawing the boundaries yourself

    • E.

      N/A – I have not experienced incorrect project boundaries within the Map Book provided

    Explanation
    If you discover that the project boundary lines are not accurate in the Map Book, the best course of action is to reach out to your local Hanley Wood contact and ask them how to proceed. This ensures that you are following the correct protocol and allows for clarification on how to handle the discrepancy. Simply using the boundaries you believe are accurate without informing anyone may lead to misunderstandings or errors in the project. Collecting the data within the accurate boundaries and sending the adjusted Map Book page back to your Hanley Wood contact after redrawing the boundaries yourself is the recommended approach.
