Returns the computed inclusion probabilities (\(\pi_i = p_{\text{site}} \times p_{\text{period}}\)) for each site-circuit combination in a bus-route creel design. The inclusion probability represents the two-stage sampling probability: the probability that a particular site is visited during a particular sampling period, combining both the site selection probability within the circuit and the circuit (period) selection probability.
Arguments
- design
A
creel_design()object created withsurvey_type = "bus_route".
Value
A data frame with three columns: the site identifier column, the
circuit identifier column, and .pi_i (the computed inclusion
probability \(\pi_i = p_{\text{site}} \times p_{\text{period}}\) for
each site-circuit unit). Column names for site and circuit match the
resolved column names from the original sampling frame (or .circuit
for designs without an explicit circuit column).
