  22. Automatic approaches • Auto Coding • Coding tasks and data validations performed on the data capture platform: a ‘cost-effective’ solution • Use one of the statistic software's in the market like ACTR (Canadian statistical software for coding some fields) • Use Approximate Search tools for improving results via DB (Exorbyte) • Dynamic Dictionary update • Lookup and dictionaries via DB

  25. Completion Station – Page Mode

  26. Field Group Mode Completion

  27. Business Logic & Validation

  28. Unique Tiling stations – Checking for false positives • Identify false positives • Alpha & Numeric fields • Highlight for verifications • Quality control for ICR

  29. Implementing Edits

  30. Analysis Of Current Form • Dictionaries • Owner name to actual address • Address Database • Date Of Birth : should match with Age • Higher Education : Which 12th year of high school • Age Of Mum : Child cannot be older than mum • Religion : Detailed action • Married : if not married shouldn’t have wife • And more…

  31. Coding Computer Assisted Coding by statistical experts as part of the data capture system (2nd level repair).

  32. Custom stations approach
