Scanning

Why use WorldAPP's paper survey scanning services?

Despite a virtual tech revolution, paper surveys are still widely used and are not expected to go away anytime in the near future. For one reason or other, paper surveys might be the only feasible options for your respondents. But remember, just because your respondents have to use paper, it doesn’t mean that you need to. We can turn your piles of paper surveys into accessible digital data using our high-volume, integrated survey scanning solution that eases the transition from paper to pixels. Send your surveys to us and we will scan everything into your Key Survey account. Our software will take the information you’ve already collected and store it as though you had used an electronic form from the beginning. Best of all, our service replicates the look and feel of your paper surveys and enhances them with advanced Web-based technology such as pre-populated fields and advanced logic. This makes it easier for you to design and for customers to complete.

How does it work?

Scanning comes in handy after your respondents have completed your paper survey. At this point, capturing the data and putting it into an easy-to-use format is extremely needed. Capturing survey data with WorldAPP's scanning service virtually eliminates the need for manual entry. It is faster, less expensive than traditional data entry methods. And what is more, it is far more than accurate as we use top-of-the-line scanning and optical mark recognition equipment to ensure that all of your critical data is available in digital format. This includes:

• Complete scanning support for bitmap images
• Advanced recognition for hand-print (ICR)
• Comprehensive machine-print (OCR) recognition features
• Checkbox (OMR) recognition
• Barcode recognition
• Image pre-processing
• Lexical checking
• Closed and open-ended questions support

Regardless of whether your surveys originate within your organization or with distributed knowledge workers, external customers or partners, our scanning technology will manage your project efficiently.

Our data gathering solution enables you to seamlessly collect data from multiple sources- including the Web, fax, paper, and PDF.

Exceptional scanning capabilities and services - our idea of good service.
