RECENT NEWS

The PatentsView database is current through September 29, 2020. All data are accessible through the web tool, API, query builder tool, and bulk downloads. The next update is planned to go live March 2021 and will include data through December 31, 2020.
All PV bulk download files have been regenerated and now all non-numeric fields are encased in double quotes. This new format should make it easier for PatentsView data users to accurately read-in the data files. The PatentsView team has posted scripts to assist users with the new files on GitHub - https://github.com/CSSIP-AIR/PatentsView-Code-Snippets/tree/master/03_bulk_download_read_in
A detailed list of the bulk download edits (and upcoming edits) can be found here: https://github.com/CSSIP-AIR/PatentsView-DB/releases/tag/2020.03.22v1

Patenting in the Southern Region
It is said “Everything is bigger in Texas,” and this is true regarding patenting as well. While patent production is concentrated in the areas around Houston, Austin and Dallas (see the map), innovation activity is spread across the entire Southern region.
