Patents

The U.S. Patent and Trade Office (USPTO) has launched a data visualization tool called PatentsView that maps patent activity in the United States from 1976 to 2014. USPTO created PatentsView in collaboration with the Center for the Science of Science and Innovation Policy, a policy research organization, to allow users to explore trends in patent activity, such as how certain regions may be linked to patents related to certain technologies or who the most accomplished inventors are.
