# POI (lat/long)

A POI (Point of Interest) file is a list of the GPS coordinates of locations where your ad campaign is being displayed.

### How do we find respondents?

We broadcast the questionnaires around these locations, starting with a radius of 100 meters around each POI. We target users connected to the Internet who have passed near these places. This is considered a **probable exposure**.

The ad recall question will help filter the respondents to retain the 250 ad recallers who meet our [quality protocol](https://support.happydemics.com/methodology/happydemics-respondents/respondents-quality).<br>

### When can I provide a POI list ?

Uploading a POI file is only possible if you use [OOH](https://support.happydemics.com/methodology/media-formats-and-targeting-strategies/media-channels-and-formats/ooh$) or [DOOH](https://support.happydemics.com/methodology/media-formats-and-targeting-strategies/media-channels-and-formats/dooh) media (outdoor ads displayed on the street or digital screens). Please upload your file **before answers collection starts.**&#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
This upload section is only available once the Brand Lift has been setup and submitted in the Overview page. You can still **edit this information up to 24 hours before answers collection.**
{% endhint %}
