Abstract

Judicial process data is publicly accessible through the websites of the Courts of Justice. The goal is to collect this data using web scraping techniques, which involve the automated extraction of structured data from the web.Another data source will be the Attornatus system, from which extraction should be facilitated. Additionally, the raw data collected will require cleaning, formatting, and structuring.Therefore, the work to be carried out consists of implementing scripts to perform web scraping from the Court. Beyond data collection, the scripts must also organize and structure the data for insertion into the database, for both the data gathered from the Court and from the Attornatus system.
