      • Advantages; No aspects are missed

    • Pragmatic Sampling
      • Sample where you can get access to and where  changes are observed
      • Advantage; Safety Realistic
      • Disadvantage; Not a fair sample    Can't make valid stastical referance
    • Systematics Sampling
      • Selected at regular intervals

      • Disadvantage; Cant make statistical reference May coincide with data or location
    • Random Sampling
