UVA Library offers Nielsen data. We offer three modules:
The Consumer Panel data includes information about product purchases made by a panel of consumer households across all retail outlets in all U.S. markets. The Consumer Panel data also includes the Annual Ailments, Health, and Wellness Survey. This is an annual survey that collects information on household member ailments (starting in 2011) and details about their lifestyles as they relate to health and wellbeing (starting in 2016). Researchers must be subscribed to the Consumer Panel dataset to have access to the Annual Ailments survey.
The Retail Scanner Data consists of weekly purchase and pricing data generated from participating retail store point-of-sale systems in all U.S. markets.
“Nielsen Ad Intel (formally known as Ad*Views), the leading provider of competitive advertising information, alerts you to new sales opportunities by tracking ad spending in more detail, across more local markets and more media outlets than any other commercial monitoring service. Nielsen Ad Intel reports makes it easy for you to interpret the data and address your most competitive questions.”
Access is limited to UVA tenure-line faculty and the Ph.D. students whom they advise.
