Retrieving US VC Data From SDC requires SDC platinum, perl scripts and SQL scripts, as well as some manual processing.

Scripts and other info

SDC and Perl Scripts are in:

E:\McNair\Projects\VC Database

This includes:

  • NormalizeFixedWidth.pl
  • RoundOnOneLine.pl - Needed for round on one line

SQL Scripts and finished data are in:

Z:\VentureCapitalData\SDCVCData

Notes:

  • Portfolio companies attributes to be extracted from roundlevel information
  • Round-on-one-line processed using RoundOnOneLine.pl and NormalizeFixedWidth.pl
  • Firms includes branch office so attributes must be extracted
  • Portfolio company descriptions - just the portco name, state, date of first inv, and the long description - has to be custom processed.

The next steps are detailed in VC Database Rebuild.


Some files required some minor post-processing to load into PostgreSQL. Issues included:

  • Firm level data didn't normalize correctly - had to adjust headers
  • Stray quotation in address line(s)
  • Area code had a 1- in it
  • Some line counts were off by one or two
  • "Firm Capital under Mgmt" column header for VCFirms has a {0mil} which screws up the normalizer. Delete this part of the column title prior to running normalizer and make sure to put in the proper number of spaces.
  • VCFirms line 7139 the text 'L"opera' has a stray quotation mark which will prevent the copy into psql table. Remove stray quotation manually.
  • VCFirms line 12461 the text '1-8' has a hyphen which creates and import error into psql table. Remove the hyphen manually.

The company long description output from SDC has the description for each company spread over multiple lines. In order to import into the vcdb we want the entire description on one line for each company. First remove the header from the long description file and name this file Process.txt. Next, to move the company long description to one line use the following bash commands in a linux terminal like on the db server.

cat Process.txt | perl -pe 's/^([^ ])/#\1/g' > Out1.txt
cat Out1.txt | perl -pe 's/\s{100,}/ /g' > Out2.txt
cat Out2.txt | perl -pe 's/\n//g' > Out3.txt
cat Out3.txt | perl -pe 's/#/\n/g' > Out4.txt

You will still have an issue running the normalizer on Out4.txt. I appended 100,000 filler characters to the last column header so that the normalizer will space things properly. However, the final output will have some long descriptions split across two lines. This will cause problems copying to a psql table. You will have to manually adjust these lines. Also remove all quotation marks from the text file because these will just cause trouble.
