Default: true.

Remarks

The AnalysisExtent property specifies the market area to thematically shade locations. The SegmentationBase property specifies the base for assignment segments to geography sites. The SegmentationLevel property specifies the ID of a segmentation level.

There are two ways for division the Tapestry segments into categories—explicit specification of Core, Developmental, Niche, and Other segments, and categorizing segments on the base of a Game Plan Chart.

In the case of explicit specification, the DefineSegmentsExplicitly parameter should have the true value and the optional CoreSegments, DevelopmentalSegments, and NicheSegments parameters can specify the categorization of segments by explicit enumerating the IDs of segments belonging to their categories. If a Tapestry segment is missing all these categories, it is considered to belong to category of other segments. At least one category should be a nonempty array.

In the case of using the Game Plan Chart, the DefineSegmentsExplicitly property should have the false value and two tapestry segmentation profiles should be specified—the base profile (BaseProfile property) is used for calculation the index and the target profile (TargetProfile property) is used for calculation the percent composition for each Tapestry segment. The optional IndexThreshold and PercentThreshold properties specify positions of Index and Percent Composition axes on the Game Plan Chart. In most cases, the Index axis should be set to a value of at least 100. The Percent Composition axis should be set to have at least three segments in the Core category. Often there will be a natural break in the percent composition values. By default, the index of 100 and the natural break in the percent composition values are used.
