Applicant Address Display

Post by giorgiomeneghin1972 » Wed Jun 14, 2017 5:32 pm

IIs there a way to display the Full Address of the Owner in the Results List? (in the "Result List Content" - "Content for download/print" there is not a precise term).

Giorgio Meneghin - Vicenza (Italy) Patlib

Dear Giorgio,

We removed addresses for inventors and applicants/proprietors for data protection reasons.
You can search (and include in your result lists) the inventors' country of residence (criterion INVC) and the applicants' country of residence (criterion APPC).

Please note that we do not always get the country of residence information from patent authorities.

Best regards,

Patrick Le Gonidec

Dear GPI Users,

Please note that GPI can help with the answer to the following question (example): what documents available for the first time in GPI in the first half of 2017 (criterion DFE), which are granted patents (criterion ISG) and EPO simple family representatives (criterion ISR), do not have the applicant country of residence information (criterion APPC)?

The corresponding completeness assessment queries are:
dfe[201701, 201706] and isg=yes and isr=yes : returns approx. 113.000 applications
dfe[201701, 201706] and isg=yes and isr=yes andnot appc = * : returns approx. 40 applications

This example shows that the proportion of documents without applicant country of residence information is low for the selected time range.

You will find more information in sections 9.9. “COMPLETENESS ASSESSMENT SEARCHES”, 9.11. “SIMPLE PATENT FAMILY”, and information about the criterion ISG (annex 1, page 122) in the GPI user manual.

Best regards,

Patrick
