To inform the public.
Description:
The paper provides assistance with systematic planning using measurement quality objectives to those working on research projects. These performance criteria are more familiar to researchers than data quality objectives because they are more closely associated with the measurement systems being used. Because of the diverse nature of research, it is not possible to describe cookbook-style procedures for developing these criteria. Instead, several general concepts and techniques are presented and researchers can choose those techniques that best fit their specific applications.
