Hello,
I am reaching out to get some clarification about the OPS database. First, I am assuming the eurospace database is accessed through OPS. But, I am wondering how much crossover in data there is between OPS and the USPTO database. I am querying data on patents and was wondering if there is some duplication between the databases. Thank you for your time.

Re: Difference between USPTO database and OPS
Hi
We receive data from the USPTO and the exact coverage you can see here: https://www.epo.org/searching-for-paten ... tions.html
A bit more detailed coverage you can see here: https://www.epo.org/searching-for-paten ... eekly.html (DOCDB biblio coverage weekly updated table)
I would say that we have complete coverage of US biblio and image data. And we have also very good coverage of US citations: https://www.epo.org/searching-for-paten ... gular.html (Citation table and IP5 citation table).
I hope this helps
