The construction is where the frame is supported. For example, for traditional bulletins the steel pole is what is being referred to as the construction. This construction supports the frame or frames that reside on the steel pole.
Use cases:
A media operator has a construction where they have two frames on a steel pole. In this case two bulletins. Both of these frames will have the same construction name. The construction name is provided by the media operator and for example can have an ID of 234968. Both frames on this construction will have construction name 234968. The construction type for this kind of build is called freestanding.
Many bulletin constructions support two frames. For example, the image below illustrates a situation where there are two frames on one steel pole. These two frames will have the same construction name because they are supported by the same construction. Similarly the triple sided construction with three frames will have the same construction name because they are supported by the same construction.
Other media types also have this same relation with the construction and the frame(s). A media operator has three frames on a single construction. In this case on a transit shelter. The construction is the physical shelter. The construction name is provided by the media operator and for example can have an ID of 369748. All three frames on this construction will have construction name 369748. There are two frames on the inside of the transit shelter while the other is on the outside of the transit shelter. The construction type for this kind of build is called furniture.

Geopath has various standard construction types to help describe how the frame is being supported.

Here are a few visual examples of construction types.
Additional Requirements:
Construction date indicates when the construction was built. The construction date will be provided by media operator. This information can help us better understand the number of new constructions and their dates as well as the historical context of when locations were built.
Goal:
To understand the total number of unique constructions in the out of home world. This will enable us to answer how many constructions (structures) exist as well as how many frames each of these constructions support. This information can be useful for both buyers and sellers.
