19 How is it measured?

20 OVAB Audience Metrics Guidelines a set of terms agreed upon by the major players designed to help standardize DOOH measurement it is not a currency, no accreditation metrics fall into two categories exposure to medium advertising Return On Investment (ROI)

21 Exposure Metrics Vehicle Zone: The physical area in which a person is able to see and/or hear a specific, place-based advertising vehicle (medium). Vehicle Traffic: The number of visits, over a period of time, with presence in the vehicle zone. Vehicle Audience: The number of people in the vehicle zone who notice the medium. Vehicle Zone Dwell Time: The number of seconds (or minutes) an average audience member is in the vehicle zone.

22 Exposure Metrics Average Unit Audience: The Vehicle Traffic, with Notice, for a unit of time equal to the typical ad unit (viewers per ad) Impression: A single exposure to an out-ofhome video network, program or message. Gross Impressions: The sum of exposures to a schedule of out-of-home video network announcements.

23 Advertising ROI Metrics Ad Recall: Percentage of the vehicle audience who can recall an advertiser on either an unaided, brand aided or visually aided basis. *Top of Mind Brand Awareness: Percentage of people who name a particular brand when asked about a consumer category. *Purchase Intent: The likelihood a person will purchase a particular brand. *Sales Lift: Change in a product s sell-through before, during and after a campaign. * typically measured by comparing control and test groups

24 Research Methodology On-site research: Observation and intercept surveys conducted with a random sample of visitors at a representative sample of a network s venues. most DOOH research is currently conducted on-site Scarborough data: used as traffic estimates for malls and other venues Portable People Meter (PPM TM ): By encoding the overhead audio (music) in a venue, the PPM local market panels can potentially measure venue traffic and possibly exposure to the medium. DOOH research does not lend itself to online data collection on average
