Methods of Collecting Fieldwork Data

Methods of Collecting Fieldwork Data is the first book in a series aimed at GCSE, A Level and IB geographers undertaking fieldwork enquiries and investigations. This book aims to help both students and teachers select the most suitable methods for collecting qualitative and quantitative data. The advantages and disadvantages of each method are discussed, and there is extensive advice on how to get the most from collecting data using GIS. The wider principles of data collection are also explored, giving the reader the context in which the methods are applied and helping them to see the high level of planning needed before they take their clipboard into the field.

The books also feature additional downloadable content.
