date of sampling
there are seasonal fluctuations because of:
- fluctuation in amount (biogenous wastes)
- consumer behaviour (beverages during summer,
Christmas holidays)
- daily variation (working day / weekend)

level of access
waste collection bin (e.g. waste):
- samples which are not of interest can be excluded easily
(e.g. commercial waste)
- huge effort for planning and sampling
- accessibility of bins (locked houses)
collection vehicle:
- high representativeness by mixing
- large sample amount
- Increase of fines
- compaction
strata of population:
similarities and differences in varying parts of the area
of investigation
- economic structure
- agriculture / forestry / commercial area / services area
- income of inhabitants
- settlement structure
- settlement density (multistory building / garden area)
- residential area / commercial area
- tourism
- waste management criteria
- collection interval / volume of collection bins
- measures for prevention / measures for recycling

stratification allows:
- more exact characterisation of population
- increase of representativeness of results
- in the strata should exist a very homogenous
structure, but different strata should differ as clear as
possible
stratification takes place according to:
- socio-economic criteria (age-, education-, economy)
- settlement criteria (settlement density)
- waste management criteria
(collection system, fee system)
extrapolation of data
simple estimation: direct calculation from average of
increment on average of population
estimation including rates: dependence of
command variable from another measurement is used.
Base mostly is number of inhabitants (I)
stratified increments need a stepwise calculation:
first in strata (i to n), second to population by share of
stratum (s)
mean1*s1+mean2*s2+..+meann*sn
meanpop = spop
s (share of stratum) may be based on inhabitants or mass or
