When patent applicants submit applications to the National Intellectual Property Administration, they are required to provide address information. The authority verifies the accuracy of this information before proceeding to subsequent stages. Additionally, precise address records enable efficient contact with enterprises and responsible parties regarding patent-related matters, making accurate address documentation essential.
Beyond facilitating communication with applicants, address data in patent records supports the analysis of regional invention and innovation activity levels. However, statistical efforts are often hindered by non-uniform reporting standards for address information.
To assist academic research, USDataverse has meticulously parsed address data of Chinese patent applicants, standardizing entries to street-level granularity and appending latitude and longitude coordinates. This comprehensive dataset provides robust support for relevant studies.
