The Qualitative Data Analysis Program (QDAP):
Accurate and reliable coding (or labeling) using humans and machines is
central to both the qualitative research and the
#bigdata text analytics process. For new and experienced
researchers, learning advanced project management skills adds hours of
struggle. Since 2005, Qualitative Data Analysis Program (QDAP) coders and project
managers have delivered large-scale, high value-added, reliable and accurate
annotated text data in a timely and expert manner. The QDAP approach to
qualitative research grows out of more than a decade of working on projects funded by
the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health,
DARPA, the Smithsonian and others. Our combination of software, methods,
experience, and novel forms of text analytics measurement present a uniquely
scientific research support offering with
applications across the
disciplines.
