Daily Text Content Scraping
Budget: $30 – $250 NZD
I'm looking for a proficient web scraper who can extract text content from a specific website on a daily basis. The scraped data should be compiled and delivered in a spreadsheet.
Key requirements include:
- Daily scraping of text content from the designated website
- Compilation and formatting of this data into a spreadsheet
Your experience in web scraping, data compiling, and spreadsheet management will be greatly valued for this project. Accuracy, timeliness, and consistent daily delivery are crucial aspects of this job. Understanding of automation tools for data scraping would be a big plus.
I am looking to collate some data from this website and need an ongoing scrape of this website to set up an ever-updating excel spreadsheet with the fields as per the attached excel file.
Go to the website
https://racing.hkjc.com/racing/information/english/Horse/SelectHorse.aspx
Go to Horse Index A-Z
Starting with letter A all the way through to the letter Z
https://racing.hkjc.com/racing/information/English/Horse/SelectHorsebyChar.aspx?ordertype=A
Most of the fields will be self-explanatory. Some have been separated.
Eg
1st 2nd 3rd Starts
For the horses that have overseas formrecords, the information is in the PDF Files, such as the link below:
