Webextraction
Get any data you need for your daily work from the web.
The WEB is the largest source of information ever created. But the information is not structured and is often found in dynamic pages created by means of database access. The WEB is currently set up in such a manner that the information can be read by people. It is however difficult to obtain the information in such a way that it can be automatically processed further.
The Web Extraction Service now enables you to access this information directly and to structure it in such a way that it can be integrated into your own database. Information such as address data, price lists, images, news, publications, etc… can easily be extracted and integrated into your in-house information system. Simply put, you can collect all the information you're interested in and transform it into the format you require.
