Weighting
Variance is change from a variable to another, it depends on:
1. The sample size
2. The actual variance for all the population units
3. the sample design
The variance for a number of variables was calculated using CENVAR
The variables that calculated are:
1. standard error
2. Coefficient of variance = standard error*100% / estimation
3. Effect of sample design
4. 95% confidence interval

Data Processing
Data Editing
The data processing stage contain of the following operations:
Editing before data entry: all questionnaires were edited again in the office using the same instructions adopted for editing in the fields.
Data entry: In this stage data were entered into the computer, using Access database. The data entry program was prepared to satisfy a number of requirements such as:
Duplication of the questionnaire on the computer screen.
Logical and consistency check of data entered.
Possibility for internal editing of questions answers.
Maintaining a minimum of digital data entry and fieldwork errors.
User-Friendly handling.

Data Appraisal
Estimates of Sampling Error
These types of error are due to studying only a part of a social base. Since this survey is sample based, the data will be affected by sampling errors due to not using the whole frame of society and differences may appear compared with the actual values that could be obtained through a census. For this survey, variance calculations were made for the amounts of water consumed and the main source of supply in economic establishments by region and activity.
