Greetings, I am Assad ali and i came across your project Data scraping from public sites and i believe myself to be the good fit for this project. Given that you need someone to update and modify existing script or create new, i have considerable experience in this field.
Python is awesome language when it comes to data scraping, data analysis and data processing i excel at using python to access web data
There are number of libraries i use within python to achieve that task, that being said i can also use google sheets api and google drive api to get data on google sheets without having to upload it manually.
Additionally i have been using scrapinghub crawlera api, google cloud etc to run crawlers and bots to extract more accurate data.
Looking forward to discuss more about this project
* What information extraction tools do you have the most experience with?
I am python web scraping expert and i use following tools
- To crawl large websites inside out i use scrapy crawlers
- To automate browser i.e Chrome i use selenium webdriver a web automation tool to access data
- Avoiding getting blocked i prefer to use either Luminati proxy or Crawlera Api
- Scrapinghub api for access e commerce website to extract product data
- Google Cloud and Scrapinghub Cloud to run crawlers on cloud for 24/7 monitoring and scraping
There are other tools like gspread for google sheets depending upon nature of tasks we can discuss less
