Future Directions for Data Collection Frames and Novel Estimation Strategies

This project seeks new adaptations to the rapidly changing landscape of survey data collection and dissemination of federal survey statistics. The key objective is to develop alternative data collection frames and novel estimation strategies that inform federal statistics. The solution for this request should consider innovative approaches, such as machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI), new data collection methods, including but not limited to passive data collection and opportunities to utilize web scraping, and novel estimation strategies based on alternative data sources.

A Teaming Speed Networking Event was also held on June 24 at 1 PM ET. To access the presentation slides and attendee lists from previous Speed Networking events, please log in to the Member Only Site.
