The graphic and attribute data related to a particular data theme for a study area. A coverage usually represents a single layer or theme.

A vector data format for storing the location, shape, and attributes of geographic features. A coverage usually represents a single theme such as soils, streams, roads, or land use. It is one of the primary vector data storage formats for ArcInfo. A coverage stores geographic features as primary features (such as arcs, nodes, polygons, and label points) and secondary features (such as tics, map extent, links, and annotation). Associated feature attribute tables describe and store attributes of the geographic features.

The "coverage" of a satellite system is the number of households who are receiving at least one channel of that satellite system. Decoder: See " descrambler".

The percentage ratio of circulation to households within a specified area. For example city zone coverage refers to the circulation in the city zone divided by the number of households residing there.

The area on the ground seen by a satellite at a particular position. Polar-orbiting satellites can in fact only see a single line going from left to right as the scanner rotates. The coverage is determined by the angles between which the scanner rotates (the scanner angle). The other determinant of the coverage is of course the movement of the satellite over the earth and the ability of the receiving station to receive its transmissions during that movement. Reception starts when the satellite comes over the station's horizon and ends on the opposite horizon. The coverage is the area seen by the satellite at each of those horizons plus the area in between. See also pass and equator crossing angle. See also projection. See also our coverage document.

A term used to define a mediums geographical potential. In magazines, the percentage of a given demographic market reached by a magazine.

Messages received by the satellite onboard instrument are processed and retransmitted to ground stations in real time. They are also recorded on board and "dumped". These two operating modes produce two types of geographical coverage with different performance capabilities: regional coverage (real time): the satellite broadcasts all messages received from transmitters in its instantaneous field of view (a 2750-km-radius circle at a minimum 5° elevation angle) to regional receiving stations. The areas served by regional coverage are therefore those within 2750 km of a regional receiving station. The results are often available in under 20 minutes. global coverage (delayed time): the satellite records all messages collected worldwide during an orbital revolution. It retransmits them each time it passes over one of the main ground stations. The results are available within a few hours.

Written by professional 'readers', the first part of a coverage usually includes specifics about the screenplay i.e. title, author, submission date, genre, circa, and location. The bulk of the rest of the rest of the analysis then provides log line, summary of the action, and a critical response to the material. At all major studios and agencies, executives use coverages to weed out bad material, provide notes, and help shape general opinions.

Report generated by a reader/story analyst involving the review and evaluation of a screenplay for potential purchase or option. A grade will be given in the form of Recommend, Consider or Pass.

A 3-5 page report evaluating the quality and potential of a written submission to be a successful film for that particular production company. Final judgment is a Recommend, Consider, or Pass. Most scripts are given a Pass (at least 85% of all submissions). This can be for story or commercial reasons. Recommends are very rarely given; this is an extremely high grade and basically means the script is ready to shoot. Thus, a Consider is considered to be positive, and should make a writer very happy! There are many factors involved in passing this test. A script must not only be well-written but must also appeal to the company's commercial and thematic sensibilities. For example, it could be a wonderful fresh romantic comedy, but if that producer or executive is not looking to make a romantic comedy, then they will Pass.

The percentage of population (persons and homes) covered by a medium.

The extent of correspondence between the target population and the sampling frame. Ideally, all members of the target population are included in the sampling frame. However, this is infrequently the case for major surveys. Coverage is rarely estimable in precise terms; however, survey designers are usually aware of the likely reasons for undercoverage and can often estimate the extent of the problem. In addition to the problem of undercoverage (missing population members), sampling frames can suffer from overcoverage, i.e., the inclusion of units that do not belong on the sampling frame and/or the listing of a given unit more than once. These problems are usually correctable. Duplicate listings are either deleted prior to sample selection or are corrected for by appropriate statistical adjustments. Listings that are not in-scope according to the survey definition are typically deleted during data collection or analysis and corresponding statistical adjustments are made to estimate the likely extent of out-of-scope cases among the survey nonrespondents.
