Extracting and analyzing data from web-pages with Web-Services and Web-Scraping#
➡️ Objectives:
🔻 Obtain data from Eurostat and the Statistical Institute of Catalonia through their APIs (Web Services) and Web Scraping.
🔻 Analyse the extracted data descriptively.
➡️ Conclusions:
🔻 Being able to extract information from the Internet through APIs and Web Scraping are essential skills for any Data Scientist.
🔻 In some cases, when it is not possible to extract the desired information from a web page, either because they do not have an API for it, or they have one but the information is not accessible through it, Web Scraping becomes a good solution.
