Web-Based Survey Techniques

This synthesis documents the current state of the practice for web-based surveys. The intent of the report is to provide a resource for successful practice, discuss the technologies necessary to conduct web-based surveys, and present several case studies and profiles of transit agency use of web-based surveys. The topic will be of interest to transit planners and managers and those who work with them as they attempt to develop and refine web-based surveys for their own transit agencies. Particular emphasis is placed on understanding the strengths and limitations of all survey methods.
