    How does VOZ work?
    1. VOZ brings broadcast TV ratings estimates derived from 20,000+ viewers in OzTAM, Regional TAM and Rest of Australia panel homes, and 16+ million devices streaming TV content (broadcast video on demand, or ‘BVOD’), together in a single, detailed database.
    2. The VOZ database is constructed to contain approximately 27 million synthesised ‘individuals’ to represent the profile of all Australians using:
      • National TAM Establishment Survey data (65,000+ surveys per year);
      • Gold Standard TV ratings calculations based on the actual viewing behaviour of 20,000+ individuals in OzTAM, Regional TAM and Rest of Australia panel homes;
      • Information from streaming TV meters installed in 4,000+ TV panel homes; and,
      • Census level OzTAM VPM (Video Player Measurement) data on 16+ million connected devices playing TV content.
