This is my collection of tools for loading the Patent Data files found at: http://www.google.com/googlebooks/uspto.html
The "loading" scripts populate a MySQL database with the patent data. Other scripts are forthcoming.
If you get any use out of these tools, I'd like to hear about it. Drop me a line at: allan.niemerg [at)] gmail.com
To see these scripts in action see: http://www.patentsbythenumbers.com/
