Data capture refers to the transfer of content and data into an electronic file or a computer. The procedure starts with collection of data from various sources such as questionnaires, survey responses, etc.
Common methods of data capture include batch keying, tally charts analysis, optical character readers such as bar code scanners and so on. Most businesses, however, continue to process almost 80% of their documents manually.
This is a time-consuming process, expensive and increases the probability of errors.
