OMR Scanning
- Reduce the burden of the education assessment process by automating data input
- Modernize, standardize and systemize key components of your educational assessment
- Increased accuracy, reduced human error, and overall improvement in the efficiency of service delivery
Optical Mark Recognition Technology allows you to accurately and consistently capture your data and deliver results in no time!
OMR utilizes an Optical Mark Reader to validate and collect objective response data from "fill-in-the-bubble" types of forms, typically used for student exams, surveys, ballots, evaluations, and more.
OMR technology provides institutions with four major benefits:
- OMR scanning is fast: An OMR scanner can maintain a throughput of 2000 to 10,000 forms per hour. This activity can be controlled and processed by a single PC workstation, which can handle any volume the scanner can generate. Increasing the throughput simply requires upgrading the scanner.
- OMR scanning is accurate: Consistently provides 99% accuracy when reading data, this exceeds the accuracy of any expert key-entry clerks because it eliminates the opportunity for transcription errors.
- OMR scanning is cost-effective: Talk about scalable - with OMR technology, organizations can accomplish a wide variety of administrative tasks quickly and accurately from a central location, with minimum expenditure.
- OMR scanning is easy to implement and support: OMR scanners need very little ongoing technical support, and are able to solve most system availability issues by recording data on an OMR form even when a PC or network goes down. If questions arise, a source form is available to validate the results.
