Frame - Policy
- Kevin Romero
The frame is the area where the content is displayed. A single non-digital poster with a single advertiser vinyl contains one frame. Similarly, a single digital poster with multiple spots also contains one frame. To visualize a frame see the full extent of the content space or face including the border. If there is no border then the face occupies the same space as the frame.
All Inventory submitted to Geopath must clearly define the frame size which is from edge to edge, provide a plant frame ID usually known as the unit ID which is unique within the same account, and indicate whether the frame is digital, rotating, full motion, partial motion, has audio, or is interactive. If digital the frame max pixel height and max pixel width must be provided. Next, the frame description will be provided which can include context on the location of the frame. For example, this unit is located on Main Street near a commercial space and a park. Lastly, the media operator needs to submit the frame media name or the name they further to the frame. For example, a bulletin or a poster.
Use Cases:
A media operator has two frames on a steel pole. In this case two posters. Both of these frames measure a height of 12 feet and a width of 24 feet. While the face measures a height of 10 feet and a width of 22 feet. The 12 feet by 24 feet is what is considered the frame. In this case, the space occupied by the face is smaller than the size of the frame. For any frame, the media operator will provide the plant frame ID usually known as the unit ID. Each frame will have its unique plant frame ID within an account. Then the operator will indicate if it is a digital or a non-digital frame. Finally provide a frame description.
The image below illustrates this use case.
A media operator has one frame on multiple steel supports. In this case, this is one poster. This frame and the face both measure a height of 12 feet and a width of 24 feet. The 12 feet by 24 feet is what is considered the frame. In this case, the space occupied by the face is the same size as the frame. For any frame, the media operator will provide the plant frame ID usually known as the unit ID. Each frame will have its unique plant frame ID within the same account. hen the operator will indicate if it is a digital or a non-digital frame and provide a frame description.

Â
A media operator has two frames on a construction. In this case two kiosks. Both of these frames measure a height of 7 feet and a width of 5 feet. While the face measures a height of 6 feet and a width of 4 feet. The 7 feet by 5 feet is what is considered the frame. In case the space occupied by the face is smaller than the size of the frame. For any frame, the media operator will provide the plant frame ID usually known as the unit ID. Each frame will have its unique plant frame ID within the same account. Additionally, since this is considered digital, the media operator will need to indicate which of the following is true or false: frame is digital, rotating, full motion, partial motion, has audio, or is interactive.
Â
Definitions:
A frame that supports full motion will have video content playing only.
A frame that supports partial full motion will have video content playing as well as traditional static rotating digital ads.
A frame that is rotating will have changing advertisers.
An interactive frame will have touch screen capabilities.
A frame that has audio will include sound along with its ads.
A digital frame will have changing advertisers that are digital.
