TVEvents is a broadcast monitoring system that offers a complete, highly reliable and easy to use suite of tools for the creation, collection and maintenance of high quality TVEvents databases. Its continual development is the result of experience gained in the field over more than 10 years from over 35 countries where the system is fully operational and delivers precise TV monitoring data.

System Overview

The TVEvents system operates as a fully integrated solution encapsulating all the stages of the TVEvents data production process; the capture of the broadcast content, the automatic search and identification of the commercial spots, assists the operator by adding accurate program details, applies the rate cards, runs the quality control scripts and generates the output file in a format compatible to the relevant analysis software.

The TVEvents system produces a 100% accurate program, break and spot database providing clients with precise emission logs based on the actual on-air content. This high level of accuracy is accomplished in part by rendering the system automatic and limiting the level of human intervention. This is achieved through the system’s advanced recognition algorithms, which ensure that the vast majority of the broadcast commercial content is automatically detected and logged by the recognition engine.

The TVEvents system comprises three modules:
