1 Department of Civil Engineering/TRIPP Indian Institute of Technology Delhi Data Collection and Sampling issues -Preparing Low Carbon Mobility Plan K. Ramachandra Rao, G. Tiwari, Sudeep Grover UNEP Workshop, Apr 2012
2 Outline Background Sampling Data collection Data needs for LCMP City profile/structure Transport network inventory Public/para-transit system/nmt Traffic conditions Travel demand modelling Environmental conditions Alternative scenario development Case study Ludhiana: A choice experiment for Low Carbon Mobility options 2 Data collection and sampling issues
3 Background Data collection is one of the essential part of any planning exercise Most of the transportation planning models are data hungry Challenge lies in identifying the data needs and sampling sizes within the allocated budgets while preparing the CMP/LCMP Need to look at the data requirements and sampling strategies for LCMP Data collected for generating information would be used for decision making 3 Data collection and sampling issues
4 Sampling Plans The selection of a proper sample is an obvious prerequisite to a sample survey A sample is defined to be a collection of units which is some part of a larger population and which is specially selected to represent the whole population Sampling is often done for reasons of cost and practicality A sampling plan is just a method or procedure for specifying how a sample will be taken from a population Methods of sampling: Simple Random Sampling Stratified Random Sampling Variable fraction stratified random sampling Cluster Sampling Multi-stage sampling Systematic sampling 4 Data collection and sampling issues
5 Sampling methods 5 Data collection and sampling issues
6 Sampling methods 6 Data collection and sampling issues
7 Sampling methods 7 Data collection and sampling issues
8 Target population The target population is the complete group about which one would like to collect information. The elements of this group may be people, households, vehicles, geographical areas or any other discrete units The definition of the target population will, in many cases, follow directly from the objectives of the survey 8 Data collection and sampling issues
9 Data collection and survey process 9 Data collection and sampling issues
10 Data collection methods Documentary searches Observational surveys Household self-completion surveys Telephone surveys Intercept surveys Household personal interview surveys Group surveys In-depth surveys IT Wireless technology 10 Data collection and sampling issues
11 LCMP Data required Description LCMP CMP Geographical location Location Climatic condition Total land area Land area Growth pattern Identification of notified areas Regional linkages Population growth trend Demography Number and size of HH Age-sex pyramid Population by social group* Socio-economic data Population by income/expenditure at zone Vehicle ownership by social group 11 Data collection and sampling issues
12 City profile: demography - sampling Age sex pyramid: A population pyramid, also called an age structure diagram, is a graphical illustration that shows the distribution of various age groups in a population which forms the shape of a pyramid when the population is growing 12 Data collection and sampling issues
13 City structure: mix intensity - sampling Data required Description LCMP CMP Land use pattern Map Population density Disaggregated at the level of study Mix intensity Land consumption by land use Determined by job-housing ratio or balance in a zone or level of study 13 Data collection and sampling issues
14 Transport Network Inventory Pedestrians - population Data required Description LCMP CMP Footpath Intersections Access 14 Width Single sided/both side Continuity Encroachment by other activity/vehicles Pavement condition Lighting Clear markings Signalized crossing Level/raised crossing Traffic calming tools like speed breakers Intermediate crossing sections Crossing distance Barrier free access to bus stops Barrier free access to footpaths

26 Case study Ludhiana Sampling strategy: stratified random sampling Data collection method: personal- paper questionnaire User preferences to the Low carbon modes Walk Bicycle Bus transit Electric vehicles Two-wheeler Car Stated preference study 26 Data collection and sampling issues
27 Determining sample size: parameters Margin of Error: The margin of error is the amount of error that you can tolerate. If 90% of respondents answer yes, while 10% answer no, you may be able to tolerate a larger amount of error than if the respondents are split or Lower margin of error requires a larger sample size. Confidence level: The confidence level is the amount of uncertainty you can tolerate. Suppose that you have 20 yes-no questions in your survey. With a confidence level of 95%, you would expect that for one of the questions (1 in 20), the percentage of people who answer yes would be more than the margin of error away from the true answer. Response percentage: This is the percentage of people who give a particular answer to a question in a survey. If 98% of people select an answer there is not much room for error. However, if 45 or 55% select a particular answer, we don't have a clear majority and the chance for error gets bigger. 27 Data collection and sampling issues
