Field Surveys
What is the significance of field survey in geography?
There are vast differences in the social, cultural and economic characteristics between different regions of a country as well as different strata of society within a region. These are influenced by the productivity of the land, occupation of the people, services and facilities available to them as well as the capacity of the people to utilize the resources. All these aspects need field work by which we can collect the type of information which is not otherwise available. In addition, it provides an opportunity to observe, to plot on a map and to interview the people about the distribution of various phenomena and to understand the causal relationship among them.
