sur quel horizon?

Marketing
It sounds rather poetic, but it's part of a very un-poetic marketing text!
The sentence (question) is simply this:
A quelle frequence et sur quel horizon?
and it is concerned with data entry - like how often the data has been entered and...
with what aim? timeframe? future plan? It sounds a bit vague in the original French but I am looking to make it sound a bit more precise in my translation. I have not come across this term before.

Comment: "Your answer confirmed what I had originally suspected, and makes sense to me - it also confirmed that this is not the usual rendering of the expression. Thanks!"

à rapprocher selon toute vraisemblance de l'expression "à l'horizon de + ...", par exemple à l'horizon 2006 = by the year 2006.
à l'horizon est plus usité que SUR l'horizon, que je ne connaissais pas dans ce contexte
