Portfolio overview

KOREA METEOROLOGICAL ADMINISTRATION has been granted 20 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing KOREA METEOROLOGICAL ADMINISTRATION at rank #14,723 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 12 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in 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). As a Foreign Corporation, KOREA METEOROLOGICAL ADMINISTRATION is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 49.8/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 12 grants, compared with 8 in the 2015–2019 window — a +50% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. KOREA METEOROLOGICAL ADMINISTRATION's 11.8 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 12 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark KOREA METEOROLOGICAL ADMINISTRATION against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
