AirSage and Citilabs will provide the backbone of the source data to power the Geopath ratings product. We do this by harnessing over 40 different data sources including cellular and GPS data. We take all that data, “stir it together” using the Citilabs’ proprietary Data Fusion Engine and produce hourly traffic volumes for the days of the week and months of the year. More importantly, we will provide insights into the audiences that comprise those volumes.
