ELECTRONIC FIELD SURVEY TABLES Version 1.0 The spreadsheets contained in this workbook represent direct calculations of each of the tables in Livestock Disease Surveys. A Field Manual for Veterinarians. by Cannon and Roe (Bureau of Rural Science, Department of Primary Industry 1982) The motivation for producing this workbook arose for several reasons, in particular the fact that Cannon and Roe is now out of print, and both authors have 'retired', the desire to generate specific answers not dependent on tables or reading off graphs, and to put the functionality of Cannon and Roe into the hands of all field veterinarians. Every attempt has been made to remain consistent with the approach taken by Rob Cannon and Dick Roe, while using the flexibility of Excel statistical functions, in a form that allows direct calculations, rather than table lookup. In some cases, a table has been calculated as well, although this is more of academic interest. The tables are as intuitive as I can make them. In most cases, pop-up comments indicate where/what should be placed in relevant cells. In addition, where specific inputs are required or desirable, drop-down boxes offer a range of choices. I wish to thank Tony Martin, and Mario D'Antuono for their kind assistance in producing this workbook.

DEDICATION Chris Hawkins Veterinary Epidemiologist WA Department of Agriculture April 2003

This workbook is dedicated to the lifetime of service to animal health and veterinary epidemiology provided by Rob Cannon and Dick Roe, whose cooperation in the production of Livestock Disease Surveys lifted a great burden from non-statistical field veterinarians!
