Build a Web Scraper to Automatically Crawl a Legal Database

Job ID: 32930836

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I am looking for an experienced web scraper who can build a tool capable of making automated search queries within a legal database at a set time interval (once or twice a week), and returning the results in an excel spreadsheet.

This is a demo project with potential for a larger contract if all goes well; I am also looking to commission a more complex tool that will include a variety of court databases and government agencies. The link to that project will be posted in this description once it is up.

The website/database to crawl is the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, a link to their eLibrary is below:
https://elibrary.ferc.gov/eLibrary/search

The keywords to search within the database are listed below as well:
Trading manipulation, energy trading, price manipulation, manipulating the market, market power, CFTC, FERC.
