City-Bureau/city-scrapers-core
Core functionality for City Scrapers projects
This tool helps journalists and researchers collect structured data about public meetings from government websites. It takes information scattered across many different online sources and organizes it into a consistent format, making it easier to track and analyze local government activity. The primary users are journalists, civic hackers, and community organizers monitoring public bodies.
Available on PyPI.
Use this if you need to regularly gather and standardize public meeting schedules and details from various government websites to create a comprehensive, organized dataset.
Not ideal if you are looking to scrape general website content unrelated to public government meetings or if you only need to collect data from a single, static source one time.
