What this shows Aspen's Innovation Score is 33.0/100 (43rd percentile 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 Aspen?

Each dot is one of Aspen’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). Aspen’s own 14.3 claims/patent is at or below the 15.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Aspen's grants concentrate

Aspen Avionics, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under G01C (Measuring Distances, Levels OR BEARINGS; SURVEYING; NAVIGATION; Gyroscopic INSTRUMENTS; Photogrammetry OR Videogrammetry). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Aspen sits between Aplus Flash Technology, Inc. and Aalto University.

Aspen's three-year grant acceleration

Aspen Avionics, Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
