- Number Analyzer on the Home Screen -

On the home screen, you'll see analytics for:

 

  • TN Inventory:   The complete set of TNs owned by you, in all regions.   
  • Port In:  The number of TNs ported in to you, in all regions, over time.
  • Port Out:  The number of TNs ported out from you, in all regions, over time.
  • TN Utilization:   The utilization percentage of all TNs belonging to you, in all regions.

 

To access analytics for specific locations or to receive more detailed analytics on the topic, click the MORE INFORMATION link at the bottom of the section.

- Select a Geographic Area -

Clicking the MORE INFORMATION link in any section of Number Analyzer on the Home screen takes you into a detailed view of the section.  When you arrive at the detailed section, the screen is split into 2 halves.

 

  • The top half of the screen enables you to utilize map functionality to hone in on an area of interest. 
  • The bottom half of the screen presents the analytics.  If you make no changes to the geography information at the top of the screen, this section presents data for All NPAC Regions.

 

To select a geographic area to perform analytics:

There are 2 ways to pinpoint the specific location you would like to see number analytics for. You may use the 2 methods interchangeably.  Each geographical selection causes the analytics to update based on your selection.

Select from the drop down boxes
  1. Select an NPAC Region  from the Drop down box
  2. Determine whether you would like to use Geography , or Market*  to pinpoint a specific location by selecting the Geography or Market tab.
  3. Select Market (only when using the Market tab ), State, LATA, and/or Rate Center as desired.  You do not need to select a value for every field. 

 

 *Note :  If you do not utilize Market functionality, the Market tab will be unavailable to you.  To learn more about Market functionality, contact Neustar at [email protected] .

Click on a Map Marker
  1. Click on a map marker to zoom in to that section of the map. Map markers are displayed as follows:

 

  • The entire U.S. map displays NPAC Region markers
  • The map of one region displays State markers
  • The map of one state displays LATA markers
  • The map of one LATA displays Rate Center markers.

The Analytic page you have entered displays different values on the Map Markers. 

 

  • TN Inventory  map markers display the Number of TNs in the marked geographic area
  • Port In  map markers display the number of TNs ported into the marked geographic area in the last 3 months
  • Port Out  map markers display the number of TNs ported out of the marked geographic area in the last 3 months
  • TN Utilization  map markers display the TN Utilization of the marked geographic area. Markers are color coded based on the utilization.
