Public R&D investment information has diverse implications for researching R&D trends. Also, as it is important for the establishment of R&D policy to grasp the current situation and trends of R&D to improve science and technology level, science and technology information service system, such as NTIS (National Science & Technology Information Service), is operated at a national level in most countries. However, since the data forms provided by current NTIS are raw data, it is necessary to develop the R&D performance indicator or to use additional scientometric methods by analyzing scientific papers or scientific R&D project information for grasping R&D trends or analyzing R&D task results. Thus, this study applied public R&D investment information to investigate and monitor R&D trends in the field of information & communication technology (ICT) of meteorology and climatology by using NTIS data of Korea and NSF (National Science Foundation) data of USA.

Along with the rapid development of industrial technology, the industrial structure has been continuously changed. Accordingly, safety technologies have been gradually developed to be applied into various industrial fields as well, not limited to a specific industry area. As a result, it became important to analyze and predict trends of safety technology development in order to establish technology strategies for industrial safety. In particular, since patents are easily accessible to gather the technology and business information, many studies have highlighted technology forecasting using patent information. Thus, this study proposes the patent analysis of monitoring trends of safety technologies of industry fields, taking into account both static and dynamic aspects through index and text analysis. First, patent documents containing safety-related keywords are collected from the WIPSON database for extracting technology information. Then, the development trends of safety technologies by industry fields are identified and analyzed through the analysis of indicators such as marketability, growth, and activation. The results of various indicator analyses of safety technologies are visualized to compare among industrial safety technologies for businesses and technology developers. Second, textmining algorithm is applied to identify trends of specific technology keywords of major industries extracted from patent index analysis. As a result, it is expected that the safety manager uses the patent analysis of safety technologies to provide safety technology information with safety-related companies and institutes. The extracted safety technologies are applicable to business practice and predict future promising technologies.
