The geography of invention and innovation in Canada

Patents registered in Canada according to patentees’ addresses, 1869-1919. I georeferenced the addresses (City/Town) of patentees who registered their inventions/innovations in Canada. The database contains 200,000 records and as the map shows, the majority of inventors were from the US, particularly from the Boston area.
