Overview
Connect with the audiences that matter most to you
Understanding how audiences tune into and experience local television is essential to reaching the right people, at the right time, with the right content. Local broadcasters and agencies need trusted measurement solutions to get an accurate picture of what their audiences are watching–when, where, how often and on which platform.
Nielsen’s Local TV Measurement solution delivers unparalleled insights into what audiences are watching across 210 local designated market areas (DMAs). By using a unique combination of advanced metering technology, people-powered panels and data from millions of cable and satellite boxes, we’re able to deliver metrics that are representative of what real people are actually viewing in local markets.
Our solution measures viewers at an individual level. We believe that every viewer counts, and our measurement stands apart from other providers for our ability to recognize who is watching what without assuming that everyone in a household is watching the same program together.
