Transcript of Re-use of public data (Police – Fire brigade) A case by Tommy Kaas Editor at Kaas & Mulvad...
Few things we would like to do:
• Create our own statistics based on the reports• Create our own maps with crimes• Create our own mobile applications
Few major problems:
• Some Police departments and Fire brigades do not publish reports
• Reports are published in different ways• Some reports are almost without structure• Different types of info are included/excluded• Some addresses are non-existing• Addresses are never exact
Few examples of our web scraping
• Foreclosures• Votings, attendance and discussions in the Danish
Parliament• EU Commissions Lobby register• Food safety inspection reports• Work safety inspection reports
and of course:• Reports from the Police• Reports from fire brigades
