What this shows Landis+gyr's Innovation Score is 47.3/100 (top 19% 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 Landis+gyr?

Each dot is one of Landis+gyr’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). Landis+gyr’s own 16.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
