It began with paper forms, in-person interviews, and observations, and progressed to sophisticated digital systems capable of gathering vast amounts of information almost in real-time. The advent of the digital revolution has fundamentally transformed the data collection landscape and democratized data collection. We delve into this transition, explaining the techniques employed over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eData analysis techniques are contingent upon the content and the goal of the analysis.
