WEB CRAWLING AND WEB SCRAPING

Internet as Data Source

We use the internet as a Data Source and we extract the information you need tailored for your projects with processes similar to those used by search engines to scan and index web pages.

What is web Crawling and Web Scraping?

Web Crawling: It is a process in which a web robot systematically navigates through the internet, exploring webs and following links in order to collect web content on another system. All search engines use these bots, called crawlers, to index the different websites in their search engines.

Web Scraping: Another process that shares the same characteristics as webcrawling but focuses more on transforming unstructured data on the web (such as HTML format) into structured data that can be stored and analyzed in a central database, on a sheet. calculation or some other storage source.

In short, the web crawler directs the web scraper through the network so that it can collect the requested information in a specific storage system. In combination, the Data Crawling and Data Scraping processes serve to improve operations and provide information that allows executive decisions to be made that end up impacting on an improvement in the experience and service of the end customer.
