3D Nation Study provides a sufficient
foundation to minimize questions in a
number of study areas. Prior to
conducting the next round of surveys,
NOAA will submit a request for
questionnaire revision to OMB based on
analysis of the baseline survey.
II. Method of Collection
Emails regarding the survey will be
sent to a comprehensive list of
stakeholders, with a request to forward
the email to any other interested survey
participants. The emails will include a
link to the online survey, which can
also be provided upon request by paper
or other means by emailing or calling
the study point of contact. In-person
interviews may follow to resolve
questions, clarify answers and add more
detail to responses. Responses may be
summarized in the future 3D Nation
Study report and verified by
respondents willing for their input to be
included in final reports and
appendices.
