Details of Sample for the federal states
The federal states have chosen a combination of a random selection and targeted sampling
Most federal states selected one to four websites or apps specifically for monitoring and selected websites in such a way that all levels of administration were taken into account.
In Tirol, those affected were involved before the first monitoring period (2021) by asking self-representation organisations to propose websites for review. In this way, reports were collected from ÖZIV Landesverband Tirol (external link - only in German), SLI Selbstbestimmt Leben Innsbruck (external link - only in German), Tiroler Monitoringausschuss (external link - only in German), Gehörlosenverband Tirol (external link - only in German) and BSVT Blinden- und Sehbehindertenverband Tirol (external link - only in German). The pool of websites generated in this survey was also taken into account for sampling in 2022, 2023 and 2024.
In addition to random selection, an internal audit group is also working in Vienna to achieve a good dispersion of topics that are of particular interest to people with disabilities.
