Hi Everybody

I have a client that needs a simple tick the boxes data entry system.

This is to be used by their client’s who may or may not know how to
navigate web applications and will be of a wide age, educational and
ethnicity range.

This will often be used on the road with poor access to the internet and
general support.

Expected volume is 30 questionnaires with up to 30 questions on each, all
of which must be processed with less than 30 minutes human processing time
per day.

I was thinking of printing a questionnaire page for each of them and then
getting a data entry person to enter the results.

But, I also want to be able scan the pages, because it is being used on the
road, I don’t think that it is realistic for the client to take a scanner
with him, I was thinking he could just use a camera and take a photo of the
completed questionnaire.

The photo would be scanned for a QR code to identify the document and also
scan the rest of the document for ticks in boxes, all of which will be in
fixed locations on the page.


Questions:

1. Has anyone done anything like this?

2. Do you have any suggestion on how to best implement it and how to avoid
problems ?

4. Do you know of any good .NET libraries that could help me?


Many thanks

Greg Harris
