General facts about Uber OOH Powered by Adomni
Uber OOH is the official Uber advertising network.
Launched in partnership with Adomni, participating Uber drivers' vehicles feature video-enabled, two-sided digital advertising screens on top.
Each city has 200-400 vehicles.
Atlanta, Dallas, Los Angeles, and Phoenix are available.
Boston is planned for Q1. Chicago is planned for Q2 2021.
An additional 15 U.S. cities have been identified as potential cities for future roll-outs.
Each city's vehicle counts result in an estimated 40-70 million monthly impressions.
Uber's impression counts are provided by Mira, a leading third-party audience data and measurement company that specializes in the measurement of audiences for out of home advertising and ads on moving-vehicles.
To produce Uber OOH's impression numbers, Mira uses state-of-the-art techniques that incorporate recent, high-fidelity mobile location data, proprietary custom geofences for each ad play delivered, and the historical Uber vehicle movement data.
The audience impression counts are refreshed daily and include a granularity of impressions per ad play (aka impressions multiplier) that differs by day of the week and each hour of the day. As a result, advertisers pay for impressions that correlate with the actual exposed audiences (eg. 8 am on a Monday will have dramatically higher impressions per ad play than 4 am on a Sunday).
The ad unit is 8 seconds in duration. Aside from static (.jpg/.png) content, full-motion video (.mp4) and animated content (.gif) is offered in the markets that support it. Some video exclusions may apply.
