METER is a privacy-first geoanalytics and audience measurement platform that helps advertisers, media owners, and agencies understand how many people actually see outdoor ads — and who those people are. We don’t guess. We measure.

How METER works

At its core, METER collects anonymized geolocation data from mobile devices. Each device is assigned a unique but non-identifiable ID, meaning no personal data is ever stored or tracked. This movement data is further enriched using inputs from mobile operators and processed using a proprietary tech stack to ensure both scale and accuracy.

Key capabilities include:
– Up to 80% urban population coverage in markets like Istanbul
– Daily updates, delivering fresh audience data every 24 hours
– Location accuracy within 5–10%

This gives our clients an unprecedented view of how people navigate the city — which streets are most trafficked, what areas attract the highest dwell time, and when footfall peaks throughout the day.

An example of enriching a unique users’s GPS track on different days. Each day is represented by a different color

METER is built for compliance

METER is fully compliant with all major data protection laws, including:
– GDPR (EU)
– KVKK (Turkey)
– CCPA (California)
– PIPEDA (Canada)
– DPA 2018 (UK)

We take privacy seriously. All data is anonymized at source and handled under strict data governance protocols, ensuring a balance between business intelligence and user rights.

Why It matters?

Outdoor advertising has always struggled with one big question: who actually sees your ad? METER answers this by offering verified exposure metrics like Reach, OTS (Opportunities to See), and Rating — all rooted in real movement data.

Media buyers to plan smarter campaigns
Advertisers to target more accurately
Retailers to evaluate potential store locations
Smart cities to make data-driven infrastructure decisions

This empowers:
With METER, the physical world becomes as measurable as the digital one. 

Through a personalized dashboard, partners gain access to tools for planning outdoor campaigns, evaluating audience reachability, and analyzing advertising assets within a selected location.

How METER Prepares Data for Analytics in Turkey

Turkey’s dynamic urban environment — from Istanbul’s dense traffic corridors to Ankara’s residential clusters — generates massive volumes of geolocation signals every day. But turning that raw data into reliable audience analytics requires structure, filtering, and intelligence.

METER follows a four-step process to transform mobility data into actionable insight:

Step 1: Clean the Signal

We filter out noise, GPS errors, and anomalies (like signal overlaps or phantom locations) to ensure that only verified movement points are used in analysis.

Step 2: Rebuild Trajectories

Missing data is inevitable — in subways, elevators, or tunnels. We reconstruct paths using interpolation algorithms, creating complete and realistic movement traces.

Step 3: Profile the Audience

Using AI models, we assign anonymous profiles to devices: age, gender, income level, and interests — based purely on mobility patterns, not personal information.

Step 4: Deliver Media Metrics

We calculate OTS, Reach, frequency, and visibility zones across screens — enabling clients to target specific audience clusters with confidence.

This preparation pipeline ensures that METER’s data in Turkey is not only vast, but trusted — ready for planning, targeting, and optimizing every outdoor campaign.
