ABSTRACT

We recommend a combination of Network Sampling and Adaptive Sampling to cover such queries with provisions for keeping check on the growing sample sizes. In Chapter 2, a theory was presented covering an application to a given district with a limited area and population followed by an extension to a national canvas. Relevant references are Thompson (1992), Thompson & Seber (1996), Chaudhuri (2000), Chaudhuri, Bose & Ghosh (2004), Chaudhuri & Saha (2006), and Chaudhuri, Bose & Dihidar (2005) among others.
