$10-700 AUD

Paid on delivery
We require a process which will scrape data from multiple tables in multiple files (PDF or DOCX) and compile it into a single XLS or CSV database in a MySQL format. THIS PROJECT IS NOT SIMPLY TO PERFORM DATA SCRAPING - THIS PROJECT IS TO DEVELOP A PROGRAM WHICH WILL PERFORM THE SCRAPING ON AN ONGOING BASIS 1) The files come in PDF or DOCX form and contain tables which have multiple pay rates for workers in Australia. The files are located here: [login to view URL] - 2) There are multiple (>10 tables) per document and a total of 125 documents. - 3) These tables need to be scraped and the data organised into a single CSV or XLS file. - 4) The tables are updated periodically so this program would need to be capable of running more than once to update the data set. - 5) The program can be build to run either in a local environment or in a cloud environment (web-hosted) and scrape live data. - 6) Two possible methods for achieving this include: (a) DOCX or PDF to RTF -> RTF to XML and then parsed or (b) using command line function of exisiting scraping tool such as Tabula
