   • Purpose and end users of data are identified
   • Sources of data are identified
2. Prepare resources for data collection
   • Checklists and recording sheets are developed according to team procedures
   • Manual instruments are prepared for data collection
   • Electronic data acquisition system settings are checked
   • Equipment settings, calibration and system are checked and adjusted according to task requirements and equipment manufacturer instructions
   • Trial runs are conducted to check equipment and procedures and required adjustments are made
3. Collect data
   • Data acquisition system start-up procedure is carried out according to manufacturer procedures
   • Data acquisition system is operated according to its designed capacity and purpose and to manufacturer specifications and safety requirements
