# Event Details - **Event Name**: Data Collection, Analysis and Visualization using ODK, SPSS/Stata/R and QGIS - **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 10 Feb, 2025 at 08:00 am – Mon, 08 Dec, 2025 at 05:00 pm - **Event Description**: INTRODUCTIONEvidenced based policies for sustainable development and better lives call for better data. Improving the capacity of people involved in data collection analysis and report writing in ensuring quality data is of significance. Following the changing data environment from use of paper in capturing data to use of digital innovation there is need to train actors involved in data collection to help them adapt to the upcoming innovations and technologies. Some of the data that are collected through the new technologies include geospatial data mobile phone administrative data and citizen-generated data among others. This 10 days course will equip participants with knowledge on research design designing data collection tools in mobile data collection enabled software GIS and remote sensing exporting data to various data collection software data analysis and interpretation. DURATION10 days WHO SHOULD ATTEND?Policy makersResearchersNGO and civil society staffsEducatorsPost graduate studentsPrivate sector representativesMedia staffsCivil Society Organizations LEARNING OBJECTIVESAt the end of training participants will:Understand various data collection techniques and data processing methodsDesign data collection tools in google phone/ ODK/CTO/ CSpro (participants’ choice)Learn how to use mobile phones in  data collection(Open data Kit/CTO/CSpro)Learn how to integrate socio economic data with GPS coordinatesLearn how to draw maps using ArcGIS among other softwareLearn how to analyze and visualize data with the aid of GIS techniques Module 1: Statistical ConceptsTypes of dataData Structures and types of variablesOverviews of software used to digitize paper data collection tools (ODK/CTO/)Comparative analysis of various software used to digitize paper data collection tools (ODK/CTO) Module 2: Mobile Data gatheringBenefits of Mobile ApplicationsData and types of DataIntroduction to common mobile based data collection platforms Module 3: Managing devicesChallenges of Data CollectionData aggregation storage and disseminationQuestionnaire Design Module 4: Getting started in ODK/CTOTypes of questionsData types for each questionTypes of questionnaire or Form logicExtended data types geoid image and multimedia Survey Authoring and Preparation of mobile phone for data collectionSurvey AuthoringODK Collect applications: Installing Configuring the device (Mobile Phones) and uploading the form into the mobile devices Module 5: Designing forms and advanced survey authoringIntroduction to XLS forms syntaxNew data typesNotes and datesMultiple choice QuestionsMultiple Language SupportHints and Metadata  Advanced survey AuthoringConditional Survey BranchingRequired questionsConstraining responsesSkip: Asking Relevant questionsThe specify otherGrouping questionsSkipping many questions at once (Skipping a section)Repeating a set of questionsSpecial formattingMaking dynamic calculations Hosting survey data (Online)ODK AggregateUploading the questionnaire to the server Module 6: Introduction to concepts of GIS and remote sensingSpatial data collection techniquesUsing GPSUsing GPS utility software for managing and downloading and managing dataWorking with data from different sources Module7: Attributes manipulation in GISGIS softwareGIS system installation and setupGIS Data sources and typesUsing Mobile Phones for GIS data collection(ODK and KoBoToolboxImporting GPS data to Quantum GIS Module 8: Visualizing dataUnderstand map layers in GISComposing a GIS layout from GIS layersDifference between a map and a layoutNavigate maps Module 9: Bringing tabular/spreadsheet data into a GIS (Excel SPSS Access )Connecting visual map features and tabular dataSelecting subsets of map features from geo processingFinding map featuresUse data sorting records and labeling features to produce informationKey elements of a mapComposing a map Module 10: Data interpretation and report writingDifferent research outputsWriting different research outputs from analysed data (case studies success stories policy briefs evidence briefs journal articles e.t.c)  - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/nairobi/data-collection-analysis-and-visualization-using-odk-spss-stata-r-and-qgis/80001446269913 - **Event Categories**: workshops, conferences, art, theatre - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 2 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: http://facebook.com/80001446269913 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 2200, max: 2200, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Nairobi - **state**: NA - **country**: Kenya - **location**: FineResults Research - **lat**: -1.2632262 - **long**: 36.7882602 - **full address**: FineResults Research, Fahari Palace Apartments, along, PQPQ+P82, Church Rd, Nairobi, Kenya ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 8 - **organizer**: FineResults Research Services Nairobi, Kenya (https://allevents.in/org/fineresults-research-services-nairobi-kenya/18581307) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn2.allevents.in/thumbs/thumb6781120ee52c7.jpg - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn2.allevents.in/thumbs/thumb6781122661d39.jpg ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening?
