Files

The files are in 2 different places:

E:\McNair\Projects\USITC

The Postgres SQL Server: 128.42.44.182/bulk/USITC

The results.csv file is a csv of the data that I have been able to scrape from the HTML of https://www.usitc.gov/secretary/fed_reg_notices/337.htm

For every notice paper, there is a line in the CSV file that contains the Investigation Title, Investigation No., link to the PDF on the website, Notice description, and date the notice was issued


I have also downloaded the PDFS from the website. That is here

E:\McNair\Projects\USITC\pdf_copy

These files were downloaded using the script on the Postgres Server. There are issues downloading PDFs onto the remote windows machine for some reason. You must download the PDFs on Postgres and transfer them to the RDP. The script to download the PDFS is 128.42.44.182\bulk\USITC\download

Using the pdf scraper from previous project found here

E:\McNair\software\utilities\PDF_RIPPER


Status

Check my work log to see what I have done on a day to day basis

Currently the web scraper is able to gather all of the data that I can gather from the HTML. There are a few cases where the Investigation Number is not listed and I need to test for those and fix that in the code.

Next steps will be to parse the PDFS, currently running a script to convert them to text

Currently running a shell script to download the PDFs. Will update when that is completed
