Accuracy of data input is important. What method of data input would be for each of the following situations and explain why: To capture data from printed questionnaires I would assume you would use an image scanner. This way you can electronically capture the input written by each individual, and always have a record as well as easy access to finding it. During an automated telephone survey normally they use voice recognition to capture the individuals records. Based on the how the computer is setup up for this it will actually total the survey and do all the data crunching for you so you do not have to do twice the work. Bank checks use magnetic in character recognition (MICR). This is where the numbers on the bottom of the check are read through a machine and tell you the bank routing number, check number, account number, and then to follow would be the amount of the check after it has been processed. Retail Tags use bar code scanners, which use UPC’s as their guide to tracking and purchasing clothes. Using this method it is easy for the store to track their inventory as well as find specifics on the article (name & price) with just the UPC. This is most common in a department stores due to the easy nature of the system. Long documents are normally scanned through a page scanner or in a word processing program.
