What this shows Geophysical's Innovation Score is 27.3/100 (23rd 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.

Where Geophysical's grants concentrate

Geophysical Technology, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G01V (GEOPHYSICS; Gravitational MEASUREMENTS; Detecting Masses OR OBJECTS; Tags). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Geophysical sits between Genimex Jersey Ltd. and Georgia-Pacific Wood Products LLC.

Geophysical's three-year grant acceleration

Geophysical Technology, Inc. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
