The problem

Measurement built for spreadsheets is hitting its ceiling.

The OOH measurement standard was designed for a workflow where a planner pulled a report once a quarter, dropped it into a deck, and presented it to a brand. That workflow is over. Planners are using AI tools that demand machine-readable provenance. Brands are running attribution loops that need cross-format reach in days, not quarters. Auditors and CFOs are asking, increasingly, how the numbers were made.

The category isn’t broken. It’s outgrown its delivery model. The data stack underneath OOH measurement has to look more like financial reporting infrastructure than like a quarterly subscription, with continuous outputs, methodology disclosure, and provenance that survives copy-paste.

That’s not a feature request. It’s a category requirement.

The Motionworks Stack

One framework. Three panels. Three outputs.

Every product built on the same measurement backbone. Calibrated against independent ground truth.

Circulation

The total population passing through a defined geography during a given time period. Built from three independent panels and calibrated against permanent traffic counters and census data.

  • Total population flow by geography and time
  • Vehicular and pedestrian volume on every roadway
  • Hourly, daily, and weekly temporal patterns
400M+qualified devices across three panels
210DMAs with full circulation coverage
24/7hourly temporal resolution

Opportunity to See (OTS)

The subset of circulation that had a reasonable opportunity to see a specific display or venue.

  • Viewshed-filtered audience per display
  • Speed and angle adjustments for roadside assets
  • Dwell-weighted OTS for venue-based formats
850K+displays with OTS measurement
10M+venues with visitation data

Likelihood to See (LTS)

The probability-weighted exposure estimate. LTS applies attention factors to convert OTS into a calibrated impression estimate.

  • Probability-weighted impressions per display
  • Format-specific attention factors
  • Reach and frequency across campaign schedules

Anatomy of a receipt

Source
Where the data came from. Device panel, viewshed geometry, place visit log, or census baseline.
Methodology + version
Which model produced the number and which version.
Confidence interval
The margin of error at a stated confidence level.
Sample size
How many observations underpin the metric.
Data freshness
When the underlying data was last refreshed.

Partnership

Motionworks and Geopath, together.

How the layers fit. What stays the same. What changes. Geopath governs the currency standard. Motionworks supplies the data, then adds the delivered and campaign measurement layers on top.

Layer 01 · Currency

Geopath

Audited audience estimates. Forward planning standard.

The industry’s audited unit-level estimates, projected as a modeled future average week. Governs how OOH is planned, priced, and transacted.

Layer 02 · Delivered

Viewcast Profiles

Historical actuals. Seasonal granularity per face.

Continuous monthly impressions for every unit, back to 2019. Documents what the inventory actually delivered. Adds the seasonal depth a forward-planning average is not designed to capture.

Layer 03 · Campaign

Viewcast Select

Observed reach and frequency. Cross-format, deduplicated.

Measures the campaign as executed: defined units, defined flight dates. Returns deduplicated reach and frequency across formats. Built on top of audited inventory inputs.

What stays the same

Geopath remains the currency.

  • Geopath governs the audited audience standard.
  • Inventory is planned and transacted on Geopath.
  • Methodology audits remain under Geopath governance.
What changes

Delivery becomes documented.

  • Static average-week planning is reinforced with monthly historical actuals.
  • Cross-format reach is deduplicated, not summed.
  • Campaigns gain a defensible audit trail post-flight.
What’s new

Two layers on top of currency.

  • Viewcast Profiles: as-delivered impressions per face.
  • Viewcast Select: campaign-level reach and frequency.
  • Both built on audited inventory inputs, in collaboration with Geopath.

Currency stays governed. Measurement gets sharper. The standard the industry already trusts, with the delivery and campaign layers it has been asking for.
