Background
Audience Measurement and Analytics Ltd., also known as aMap, began in 2004 on the basis of its research in India, which showed that a significant number of opinion leaders felt that the industry required a state-of-art audience measurement system.
aMap collects viewership data using Telecontrol VIII data collection units sourced from Telecontrol AG, and wireless connections using GSM modems.
The measurement system of aMap is rigorous and comprehensive enough to handle a complex multi-layered Indian audience. Also, because of competition among so many channels, the need was to get data much faster.

—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“Pilate with his question “What is truth?” is gladly trotted out these days as an advocate of Christ, so as to arouse the suspicion that everything known and knowable is an illusion and to erect the cross upon that gruesome background of the impossibility of knowledge.”

“In the true sense one’s native land, with its background of tradition, early impressions, reminiscences and other things dear to one, is not enough to make sensitive human beings feel at home.”
