I was hoping to connect with others who have used (or are interested in) this method of data collection, or similar methods which rely almost exclusively on observation of visitor behaviors.  Specifically, I am wondering about "lessons learned," as well as the benefits and limitations of these methods. Please contact me at the phone number or email address below.
