8. METHODS OF COLLECTING MOBILE USER LOCATION DATA
Beacon
Pros:
• The system can provide location-discovery capabilities indoors and in dense
urban areas.
Cons:
• Customers are reluctant to opt-in (Security & Privacy)
• Difficult to scale
• Device bluetooth connection must be turned on.
Cell Tower Triangulation
Pros:
• A general location of a phone can be roughly determined to an accuracy of
200-1000 meters.
Cons:
• Distance is estimated based on signal strength and the round-trip time of the
signal.
• Not a very accurate measurement, especially in rural areas where there can be
lots of reflections and interference.
IP Address
Pros:
• IP addresses requires nothing but an Internet connection: no cell signal, no
GPS.
Cons:
• Only accurate to the metro or zip code level.
GPS
Pros:
• All modern smartphones have GPS capability. The signal is geo-precise,
timely, and does not require sign-in like Wi-Fi; it is passively active if the
consumer has opted in to allow access to this information.
Cons:
• Has limitations when used indoors due to interference with building
structures.
• SSP SDK has to be able to get location data from the publisher.

19. KEY TAKEAWAYS
Publishers/ SSPs will need to continue to improve the accuracy of the geo data provided to their DSP and DMP partners.
Geo-Targeting, although very relevant, should not be the only approach to building in-app audience profiles.
Finding the target audience is one thing, creative delivery of the message is equally as important.
Programmatic buying of impressions based on geo-targeting techniques will be the next frontier.
