Sampling
Sampling Procedure
Sampling Frame
A frame of lines and number of vehicles was obtained by the Ministry of Transport for 2019, The frame has been used in the weighing of public vehicles.
A frame of parking freight transport vehicles and number of vehicles in every parking.
In Gaza Strip and Jerusalem (J1) data were estimated based on a time series of (Transport Survey - Outside Establishments Sector) data: the estimation methodology of data that was adopted is based on utilizing the data of a three years time series for the years preceding 2019, which were verified and checked to ensure its consistency and that there aren't any major gaps or any significant disparities between one year and another.
v Number of vehicles: Number of vehicles was based on the listing of 2018-2019 that was conducted in 2019.
Other Indicators: The ratio of each indicator for the number of vehicles for every year was calculated at the level of the three transport categories (public, private, freight), and the average of each indicator was calculated, and the estimation was obtained by multiplying the average with the already known number of vehicles.
Sample Design
In the West Bank, all vehicles that reached the Licensing Departments at the Ministry of Transport within the period (14/11/2019 to 26/03/2020) were listed.
Sample Strata:
Vehicles were classified into layers at the following levels:
1. Geographical classification: Vehicles were classified at the level of 11 governorates.
2. Type of transport: Vehicles were classified according to their activity.
3. Vehicles model: Vehicles were classified according to their model.

Response Rate
The Response ratio is (100.0%)
Weighting
The sampling weight of the vehicle is the mathematical inverse of the possibility selection of that vehicle; still, this weight was adjusted after the data collection to ensure taking into account the nonresponse rates, adjusting the weights by creating strata after conducting the survey by governorate, vehicle type and vehicle's year of production

Data Appraisal
Estimates of Sampling Error
Sampling Errors
Data of this survey affected by statistical errors due to use of a sample, therefore, there are certain differences from the real values expected to be obtained through censuses. Variations were calculated for the most important indicators and included in the report. Dissemination levels of the data were particularized at the regional level in Palestine.
Non- Sampling Errors
These types of errors could appear on one or on all of the survey stages that include data collection and data entry, And it related to, responders, fieldworkers, and data entry personnel. To avoid mistakes and reduce the impact, there had been a series of procedures that would enhance the accuracy of the data through a process of data collection from the field and data processing.
