Does it measure foot traffic?

No. There are no visit counts and no dwell times here. It measures who lives there, who works there, how far people can drive in a set time, and who already trades nearby.

Can two sites go into one document?

Yes. A comparison puts several addresses through the same study and produces a single deck and workbook that rank them side by side.

Can our analysts get the raw figures?
