Developmental and Testing of a Field Random Samplind Designation Methods

Abstract

This study tests a new field sampling method that uses dice rolls and RTK GPS to randomly select sampling points in ecological surveys. The method was tested in the Botanical Garden of the University of Debrecen across five locations, producing 125 sampling points. Results show the method achieves statistically valid spatial randomness, comparable to computer-generated random sampling, without needing any software or digital preparation before fieldwork.
