Philadelphia, PA, USA - London, UK - November 28, 2005 - Today, Thomson Scientific announced the forthcoming launch of Thomson Data
Analyzer, the powerful intelligence tool. The successor to Derwent AnalyticsSM,
the Thomson Data Analyzer desktop software offers a powerful interface
for managing and extracting business-critical insights from patent and scientific
data within in-house or commercial databases.
Thomson Data Analyzer provides an easy way to analyze trends, profile
competitors, avoid or uncover patent and copyright infringement, and identify
strategic development opportunities in information from a wide variety of Thomson
Scientific databases including:
- value-added patent records from Derwent World Patents Index®
and Patents Citation Index™
- full-text patent documents from Delphion®, MicroPatent PatentWeb®
and Aureka®
- current and retrospective multidisciplinary journal information from Web
of Science® and INSPEC, via ISI Web of KnowledgeSM
Customers including information specialists, legal professionals, research
scientists, and human resources professionals can also adapt Thomson Data
Analyzer to mine their own in-house databases and Microsoft Excel files.
Using the sophisticated technology of VantagePoint software from Search Technology,
Inc., Thomson Data Analyzer enables users to analyze information from
any structured database at their desktop, and to discover patterns and relationships
that may not be immediately apparent.
“Thomson Data Analyzer is the second incarnation of Derwent
Analytics, which was created in response to the challenge for businesses
to fully understand and maximize the value of their own information and intellectual
assets, and those of their competitors’,” said Nick Fallon, Director
of Product Management, Thomson Scientific. “Thomson Data Analyzer
answers the increasing problem of information overload, letting the technology
do the hard work and freeing the user to focus on analysis, which they can now
perform on an even wider range of data sources”.
