概要	Remote Document Collection is a data collection technique in which researchers gather written, visual, or multimedia documents from digital sources — online archives, institutional repositories, cloud storage, email, or government databases — without requiring physical presence. It extends classical document analysis into digital environments, enabling access to geographically dispersed or restricted materials and making it especially valuable for large-scale, cross-national, or time-sensitive research projects.	Document collection is a systematic data-collection technique in which the researcher gathers and reviews existing written, visual, or digital records — such as reports, meeting minutes, policies, letters, photographs, or institutional records — as primary or supplementary evidence. It is widely used in qualitative, historical, and mixed-methods research and can stand alone or complement interviews and observation.
