A checklist for use when planning a survey. The actual planning document is the protocol that goes along with a survey. A general outline for a protocol/research report can be found here (Spanish) and contains other sections that are important for a survey protocol that are not covered here such as sampling considerations.

Who is the Checklist for?
It is designed primarily for the Principle Investigator (PI) responsible for the survey. In larger surveys many people will be involved in designing, carrying out and reporting. But ultimate responsibility rests with PI, who must be fully accountable for everything that goes well and badly both scientifically and practically. There has to be a PI for any research-based survey.
