Predictive Technology for Boundless Advertising
With greater understanding and application of real-time data, AI and Predictive analytics, the power radiated from them is yet to be apprehended. The possibility of anyone around the billboard area getting a chance of experiencing consumer interaction with the advertisement increases, as they not only view the billboards but interact with the same ads digitally via mobile. With LOCAD’s mobile advertising the company combines the power of OOH with mobile to increase engagement opportunities with the target audience. The LOCAD Mobile Network is a customized geo-fencing solution, grounded in OOH assets, with location verification enabled that reinforces messages with a complementary mobile ad, geo-fencing OOH assets and key secondary locations. The real time proof of posting advertisement and monitoring is a challenge still faced by the media owners and media fraternities. Lack of any mechanism to measure the scheduled places and times facilitated the advent of LOCAD’s audit platform; LOCAUDIT- the real time proof of posting, monitoring, and reporting platform for OOH media and retail sites.
This new integrated platform for LOCAUDIT rolled out in December 2017 has introduced a new service to provide live traffic count analysis of OOH site image processing using AI and ML algorithms.
