Announcing Telmar CenTab™, an Expanded and Tabbable US Census Database and Mapping System for Micro-Geographic Analysis

NEW YORK, April 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Telmar, a global supplier of advertising media software and services, announced the launch of Telmar CenTab™.  Marketing and media companies now have a tool that allows targeted media planning at micro geographic levels using the Census Bureau's annual PUMS Study.

Telmar CenTab™ contains the demographic variables commonly used in media planning and future releases will contain even greater demographic detail in the areas of occupation, ethnicity and education.

Users can also integrate Telmar CenTab™ with their own studies and subscription based studies for micro geographic reporting, analysis and mapping.  PUMS is an annual US Census Bureau survey representing 1% of the American population.  The number of observed respondents is more than 3 million, by far the largest respondent level, total US population study for stable cross-tabbing results.  The database has been updated to current US county population levels and extended by statistical simulation techniques to 8 million respondents to allow more comprehensive micro-geographic level analysis including states, markets and counties.

Telmar CenTab™ is another Telmar service that fits squarely into the Telmar MediaVision™ philosophy and platform which ensures effective and efficient advertising outcomes through integrated marketing, media planning and buying processes.

"Ultimately, what Telmar CenTab™ offers is an enhanced customer segmentation solution and when used in conjunction with other media studies can result in better media planning solutions," said Corey Panno, President, Telmar Group Inc.
