What this shows Government's Innovation Score is 39.5/100 (top 38% 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 Government?
Each dot is one of Government’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). Government’s own 16.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Government's grants concentrate
Government OF THE United States AS Represented BY THE Administrator OF THE U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is a focused PatentsView assignee: 21 CPC subclasses with 40% of grants classified under G01N (Investigating OR Analysing Materials BY Determining Their Chemical OR Physical Properties). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Government sits between Global Safety Textiles GMBH and Graff Diamonds SA.
Government's three-year grant acceleration
Government OF THE United States AS Represented BY THE Administrator OF THE U.S. Environmental Protection Agency shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
