How is the data organized within the new DWPI? What are the Invention and Member Patent (publication) Levels?
Two “levels” of data are now available within DWPI. The Invention Level is the traditional view of DWPI comprising bibliographic data, Thomson Scientific value-add title and abstracts, and general and, where appropriate, in-depth indexing. The Member Patent Level allows users to search and display bibliographic data and general indexing information associated with individual documents that make up the patent family Invention Level. Additional data elements such as original titles and abstracts, claims, addresses and agent information are also present at the Member Patent Level.
