What this shows Airmar's Innovation Score is 46.5/100 (top 21% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Airmar?

Each dot is one of Airmar’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Airmar’s own 28.3 claims/patent is ABOVE the 5.6 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Airmar's grants concentrate

Airmar Technology Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 18 CPC subclasses with 68.8% of grants classified under G01S (Radio DIRECTION-FINDING; Radio NAVIGATION; Determining Distance OR Velocity BY USE OF Radio WAVES; Locating OR Presence-detecting BY USE OF THE Reflection OR Reradiation OF Radio WAVES; Analogous Arra). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Airmar sits between Adco Proucts, LLC and AMG Co., Ltd..

Airmar's three-year grant acceleration

Airmar Technology Corporation shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
