What is Web data extraction?
Web data extraction refers to the automated process of extracting information from various sources such as web pages, documents, files, or images. This extracted data is typically stored and organized for further processing and analysis.
Web scraping, a common method used for data extraction, involves retrieving data from websites or individual web pages. While manual extraction by copying and pasting text from multiple web pages is possible, it is time-consuming and prone to errors.
To streamline the process, data extraction is often performed using specialized software applications known as data extractors. These tools retrieve and extract data from web pages or a series of pages and present it in a structured format, such as a spreadsheet or machine-readable format like JSON or XML. The extracted data can then be utilized for various purposes, including display through user interfaces or processing by other software applications.
