Derwent Innovations IndexSM


 
Derwent Innovations Index opens the power of patent searching to all levels of an organisation. It offers an unrivalled breadth of coverage by combining value-added patent records from Derwent World Patents Index with patent citation information from Patents Citation Index.

This unique merged data set, comprising 14.3 million inventions from 41 worldwide patent-issuing authorities, is accessed through an intuitive web interface. You can browse easily between patent records without using a complicated search language, and explore related ideas using citation links.

Extra value is provided by the option to link to full-text patent documents via Delphion, Esp@ceNet and MicroPatent (subscribers only), with optional links to scientific literature citations in Web of Science.



FEATURES

  • Offers a comprehensive overview of an invention in the global marketplace, including its novelty, legal owner, and degree of protection
  • Helps users identify technological advances, reduce duplication of R&D, track the global activities of competitors, develop new ideas, and identify potential gaps in the marketplace and resulting licensing opportunities
  • Delivers easy access and powerful search capabilities by coupling patent data with the Web of Science interface, which allows users to navigate citations forward in time to citing patents and backward in time to cited references
  • Enables users to quickly grasp a patent's significance and its relationship to other patents through value-added processes: patent families, rewritten patent titles, abstracts, DWPI Class codes, and cited patents

INTENDED USERS

By balancing the easy accessibility of the Web with powerful search functionality, Derwent Innovations Index supports a wide range of job functions, including: R&D specialists, information professionals, legal professionals, strategic planners, and patent librarians.
