The present invention relates to improvements to systems and methods for filtering a data set. An audience filtering system is configured to perform operations that include accessing a database that comprises user profile data associated with a plurality of users, generating a bit-set based on the user profile data from the database, wherein the bit-set comprises an array of binary values, receiving a user input e.g., via a GUI) that defines one or more filter criteria (e.g., a value of a user attribute), filtering the bit-set based on the one or more filter criteria, and identifying a subset of the plurality of users based on the filtered bit-set, according to certain example embodiments.

Audience filtering system

The present invention relates to a system to facilitate the identification of geo-cells, and the distribution of media content. A visitation tracking system is configured to retrieve location data from a client device, identify a geo-cell from among a set of geo-cells based on the location data, access a database that comprises media content associated with one or more physical location within the geo-cell, ranking a first media content among the media content, and loading the first media content at the client device based on the ranking, according to certain example embodiments.

Visitation tracking system

A system of generating targeted user lists using customizable avatar characteristics includes a messaging server system. The messaging server system includes an application server that generates a database of mutable avatar characteristics, a database of style categories, and a targeted user list. The application server then causes a media content item to be displayed on display screens of electronic devices associated with the set of user identifiers included in the targeted user list. Other embodiments are disclosed.
