Gaining a better understanding of the underlying quality of data, to inform how best to deploy for advertising and marketing decisions, is the principal issue. The primary purpose of this study (conducted on behalf of the Coalition of Innovative Media Measurement [CIMM]) was to help inform the general media community about the quality, recency, consistency, and representative aspects of third-party data. The secondary purpose was to provide feedback on the industry's appetite for master data and reporting standardization.
