Standards definition (Common OOH terms): The demographic, socioeconomic, or behavioural profile of the network’s audience that is inclusive of the percentage of the total audience falling in each segment.
Standards definition (Audience targeting terms): Attributes of the audience of a given campaign or set of campaigns. Very often based on demographic attributes, eg 44 per cent female / 56 per cent male, or geographic attributes.
Audience contacts
Audience contacts represent how many people have travelled past or waited near the sign. These can be represented as total people, ie OTS, or visibility adjustment may also apply to create LTS. A person is counted once for each single journey past the sign. Audience contacts can be reported over time across multiple days as reach and frequency.
Audience impressions
Audience impressions represent how many views of the advertiser’s campaign has occurred as people have travelled past or waited near the sign. A person may be counted as having viewed the advertiser’s campaign more than once in a single journey if they dwelled long enough to see the same advertiser again.

Includes profiles based on movement / visits to particular destinations, eg shopping centres, recreational areas, and sporting venues. Behavioural and transactional data profiles may or may not refer to a profile about unique users.

There are three types of people in this volume: occupants of cars, pedestrians and mass transit passengers. Generally outdoor circulation figures will only reflect people in vehicles. Occupancy rates vary by State, by type of location and time of day.
Code of Ethics
The Outdoor Advertising Association of Australia (Inc.) has a voluntary code adopted upon membership to the Association, pledging member companies to operate for and in the public interest.

Cost per minute
The cost (price) to deliver a minute of total advertisement play independent of audience. As with cost per play, the effective audience period should be taken into account for any analysis. Cost per play (and cost per minute) is determined by the on and off time per screen. However, if agreed by the seller and buyer, the time period of analysis can be modified. This is particularly important as cost per play (and cost per minute) should take into account the effective audience period, eg 95 per cent of Roadside audience is between 6am and 11 pm, so only plays in this period should be used for analysis.
Cost per play
The cost (price) to deliver an advertisement play. Variations in the advertising play length between locations may exist, as the play length is determined by other factors, eg Roadside is affected by state and local government planning laws and these differ across Australia.

MOVE calculates contacts by first assigning the entire Potential audience to trips that make up the average typical day (i.e. work trips, shopping trips, social trips, education trips etc). Each of these trips has a path through the market place. The relationship between this path and the signage locations with determine which signs the Potential audience sees.
