Scrape data to CSV file


Recommended Posts

Monday, May 21, 2012

 

Hello everyone. I am a Ubot newbie. I have version 4.0 I have watched all of the training videos at ubot,youtube, learnubot, ubotbuddy, and others on the web. . I need help on scraping data from a public website. The website is www.maricopa.gov

The data that I need to scrape is in a subdivision called Harbor Crossing.

There are 27 parcels in this subdivision.

 

For each parcel I need to scrape the:

Parcel

Owner Name

City

Address

 

I then need to place this data in a csv file which i will call info.csv. The headers starting in row 0 will be Parcel Owner Name City Address

 

Steps:

 

1. Navigate to www.maricopa.gov ( I can do this )

2. Under quick links- click assessor/parcel information ( I can do this )

3. Advance search options - click ( I can do this )

4. By subdivision - Harbor Crossing - click ( I can do this )

 

5 Everything beyond this point is kind of difficult to get it to work I still don't completely understand how to use functions and commands such as loop, add to list ect to get this done.

 

Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated as far as the exact steps I need to follow to get this done.

Ok, I will need a subdivision name to enter in the text box...But I want to show you how to condense the code into two nodes. For this site, and what you want to do, you can navigate directly to step 3 without the need to click the two prior links. Use this as your url to navigate to:
