     During an expeditionary site survey, data is collected in which components?

    • Site selection, site survey, reporting

    • Pre-site survey, site survey, post-site survey

    • Pre-site survey, site survey database development

    • Site selection, database development, airfield suitability survey

    Correct Answer
    A. Pre-site survey, site survey, post-site survey
    Explanation
    During an expeditionary site survey, data is collected in three main components: pre-site survey, site survey, and post-site survey. The pre-site survey involves gathering information and conducting research before visiting the site. The site survey is the actual on-site data collection process, where measurements, observations, and assessments are made. The post-site survey involves analyzing and reporting the collected data, which includes summarizing findings, identifying potential issues or improvements, and making recommendations. These three components together ensure a comprehensive assessment of the site and provide valuable information for decision-making.
