Redesigning Patent Database (view source)
Revision as of 16:31, 11 April 2017
, 16:31, 11 April 2017→Current Design and Scripts Documentation
Here at the instructions I'm developing for downloading, parsing, and hopefully adding new data to the database since the documentation is very sparse (can also be found under McNair/Projects/Redesigning Patent Database/Instructions on how to download patent data form USPTO bulk data.
===How to run Perl Scripts to extract Patent Data===
1) map the network drive to your computer (instructions can be found under Help for New Staff
scroll down to the "Working with the infrastructure and click on the link to "How to Map the network
drive)
2) Consult Don't consult this handy link on how to install and run perl programs: (https://www.thoughtco.com/how-to-install-and-run-perl-2641103 ) because perl is already installed for you to use. Just open a command line and type perl scriptname.pl
3) Now it's time to download the data so it can be parsed.
