New Coverage and Reach Metrics to Begin For February 2025 and will be Included for Super Bowl LIX Ratings
New York February 3, 2025 Nielsen, a global leader in audience measurement, data and analytics, today announced its Out-of-Home (OOH) measurement now covers 100% of the US contiguous television population, up from 66% coverage last year. This level of coverage has never been available before.
The inclusion of this expanded coverage into National TV metrics starts for the February 2025 measurement interval, which began on January 27, 2025. Reach and frequency metrics also include OOH starting February 3, unlocking the full picture of unique viewership. Ratings for Super Bowl LIX on FOX* will include this updated OOH measurement for Nielsen's overnight ratings and Big Data Panel ratings.
Nielsen continues to innovate and adapt with our industry, said Karthik Rao, Nielsen CEO. We're working hard every day to better capture what people are watching and where. The communal power of TV is undeniable and with this out-of-home expansion, we can more accurately provide the industry with the most-complete picture of the viewing audience.
The OOH viewing audience is critical for sports and live event programming, as communal viewing in homes, bars, restaurants and hotels across the country is especially prevalent for marquee sports events. Nielsen is the only measurement provider positioned to accurately deliver both in and out of home measurement for live programming. Additionally, Nielsen's people panel allows it to be the only company to most accurately measure diverse audiences.
The update ensures that Nielsen is representing all out-of-home viewing by people, including in more rural parts of the country. It is made possible by increased adoption of wearable devices for members of Nielsen's persons panel, which was recently re-accredited.
OOH expansion is the latest innovation and milestone for Nielsen. In January 2025, the company was accredited for Big Data Panel measurement, which represents its biggest measurement enhancement in a generation. This followed accreditation for a first-party live streaming solution in November 2024. Nielsen is the leader in audience measurement, trusted by clients across all of TV and advertising. Nielsen's ratings and rankings for linear TV, the Nielsen Streaming Top 10 and The Gauge are the trusted sources of truth for the industry.
