Processing, Cleanup & Displaying of Envoy Financial Statements

December 4, 2011 - 03:10 -- mlaskus
Summary: 

Financial statements of Polish parlimentary envoys are publicized yearly, but the information they contain is bothersome to read and process. They are available as PDF files containing scanned documents, which were filled out by hand in the first place.

 

Polish NGO, Stowarzyszenie 61, took the effort to digitize this information yet it still needs to be cleaned up and modelled before anything interesting can be done with it.

 

We aim to clean up those records, put them in a database and provide Stowarzyszenie 61 with tools to do add more data to it by themselves in the future.

 

The secondary goal is to create a website where anyone will be able to easily access this information and create their own queries in a very intuitive manner.

 

Why we are working on this problem: 

Transparency

Community help: 

Any ideas for how to use this data in interesting ways are most welcome.
