Category Channel Term Definition
Delivery OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Devices

CTV Devices:
Smart TV: a TV set with internet capability, e.g., LG TV, Samsung TV.
Game Console: a gaming device connected to a TV, e.g., PlayStation or XBOX.

Connected Device: an internet-connected media device connected to a TV, e.g., a Roku streaming player or Amazon Fire Stick.

Non-CTV Devices:
Personal Computer: This could be a laptop or a desktop computer, smartphone, tablet, or other mobile device.

Delivery OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Platform

This could be the name of the platform (e.g., Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Google TV) or the make/model of the device (e.g., PlayStation, Amazon Fire Stick, Sharp, LG, TiVo, Set Top Box).

"Unknown" platforms are conditions where the user agent and other metadata cannot be precisely associated with a specific buying platform, such as Apple TV. In general, this condition is rare, but due to SDKs and non-specific user agents in use by OEMs and ad tech platforms, it does occur with some frequency.

Data for these CTV devices remain fully MRC accredited and meet the rigorous standards in place.

Delivery OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Platform & Publisher This is the combination of platform and publisher. Each line item or category is a specific combo of the two fields, e.g., "Amazon Fire TV/Hulu." 
See "Publisher" and "Platform" for details.

Measurement OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Frequency - Heavy (%) The percentage of households exposed ten or more times during the campaign.
Measurement OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Total Reach The number of unduplicated households reached during the campaign. This metric is de-duplicated, meaning each count is a distinct household.
Measurement OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Unique Publisher Reach

The number of unduplicated households reached by a single publisher during the campaign.

Households reached by two or more publishers are not included in this metric. This metric is de-duplicated, meaning each count is a distinct household.

Measurement OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Unique Reach Percentage (%)

The number of unduplicated households reached by a single publisher or platform (i.e., Unique Reach), divided by the number of households reached (i.e., Total Reach), displayed as a percentage.

Measurement OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Unique Reach Efficiency A publisher or platform’s overall efficiency in achieving Unique Reach against delivered impressions.
Overlap OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Incrementality

This is the percentage of increase in total reach that the publisher or platform added. For example, if Publisher A added 10 unique households and reached a total of 100 (including Publisher A), the incrementality is 11% (Or 10/(100-10)) = 11%.

Or:

if they increase reach from 90 to 100, the incrementality is 11% or 10/90.

Financial OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Data Lineage-Specific Terms

Data Lineage provides a transparent view of the resolution of all impressions served to households for reach and frequency measurement purposes. It currently applies to ad serving impressions only at the publisher level. We calculate metrics based on observed behavior and then extrapolate (model) to account for unresolved impressions.

The level of resolution is defined by the eligibility of the impression, where an eligible impression can be measured directly and resolved to a household.

Outcomes OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Responses from OTT Most OTT attribution is based on view-throughs - sessions occurring in the seven days following an impression (or whatever the attribution window is).
Outcomes OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Cost per Response from OTT The cost of each response (view-throughs), based on the total cost of the advertising and the total number of responses.
Outcomes OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Response Percentage Number of responses (view-throughs) as a percentage of the number of impressions served.
Outcomes OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) OTT Responses Over Time

Responses over time are broken down according to the date the session occurred. The blue bar represents view-throughs on that day linked to an impression served that day, and the teal bar represents view-throughs on that day linked to an impression served prior to that day (within the campaign period).

A session must occur within the attribution window (usually seven days) to be linked to an impression as a view-through. Therefore, the blue bar is made up of responses to impressions served within the past seven days.

A single session could be split between the blue and teal bars if the household was exposed to both impressions on and before that day.

Outcomes OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Response Split by Geography The number of view-throughs broken down by DMA based on the geolocation of the IP address.
Outcomes OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Response Rate Split by Geography The number of view-throughs in each DMA as a percentage of the number of impressions served in each DMA.
Outcomes OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Same-day and Longer-Term Response by Publisher Number of view-throughs broken down by publisher.

Outcomes OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) Response Percentage The number of attributed responses as a percentage of the number of impressions served.
Outcomes OTT (Desktop, Mobile & CTV) DDL Responses Over Time

Responses over time are broken down according to the date the session occurred. The blue bar represents sessions attributed on that day linked to an impression served that day, and the teal bar represents sessions attributed on that day linked to an impression served prior to that day (within the campaign period).

A session must occur within the attribution window (usually seven days) to be linked to an impression as a view-through. Therefore, the blue bar is made up of responses to impressions served within the past seven days.

A single session could be split between the blue and teal bars if the household was exposed to both impressions on that day and prior to that day.
Outcomes Linear Outcomes by media dimension - DDL

The same definitions as OTT, other than:

The difference in the way DDL responses are measured (with the use of a control group).

DDL has three time categories - immediate response, same-day response, and longer-term response. Immediate response matches the window the spike model is set up to measure, and same-day is anything on that same day but outside the immediate response window.
Outcomes Linear TV Influence
