-===== Swiss parliament minutes scraping =====
+==== Swiss parliament minutes scraping ====
-In this project, we are planning to:
+[[http://parlement.letemps.ch]]
-  - Scrape the parliament website in order to retrieve councilors bio and minutes (with proper structure, explained later).
+Is the Swiss parliament really useful ? Once elected, what are our councilors talking about ? Who is answering to whom ?
-  - Structure them.
-  - Analysis (person vs. vocabulary, dialogue order, gender).
-Our [[https://github.com/fabricehong/parl-scraping|github]].
+Goal of this project is to answer some of these questions and many more. To do this, we are planning to:
-===== Data =====
+  - Scrape the parliament website in order to retrieve councilors bio, topics discussed and minutes
+  - Structure them in session, intervention (with rank/order), author and text
-  * Soon !
+In order to perform some analysis, as
+    -  from keywords, who talks about what, by parties, cantons and people
+    - person vs. vocabulary
+    - dialogue order
+    - gender
+Our NEW [[https://github.com/douglas-watson/parl-scraping|github]] (careful, we had to fork it at the beginning of day 2).
+=== Data ===
+Raw data are available as one single JSON file, and its .csv counterpart. We had size problems, thus exploring ways to produce several .csv.
+**The [[https://github.com/douglas-watson/parl-scraping/tree/master/data|final folder for our data is on github]], the [[https://github.com/douglas-watson/parl-scraping/blob/master/data/with-bio-split-csv.zip|.csv files split by session are here]].**
+== Structure of the main JSON (on Giovanni's side, complement with the bio data from the Parliament API) ==
+list of interventions, with the following fields:
+  * Link_subject: link to the page of the subject under discussion (cf. CuriaVista)
+  * Surname: of the person speaking
+  * Description: of the subject under discussion
+  * Bio: link to the page of the person speaking
+  * Canton: of provenance
+  * Subject_id: of the subject under discussion (still to be understood: typology)
+  * Date: of the intervention (DD.MM.YY)
+  * Group: political group of the person speaking at the moment of the intervention
+  * Session_title: title of the session (Séance)
+  * Data: transcript of the intervention
+  * Name: of the person speaking
+== Structure of the Parliament API data via Yannick ==
+  * [[http://ws.parlament.ch/councillors/823?format=json|Very rich example fields-wise]] (thus almost complete) for one councillor
+  * [[http://ws.parlament.ch/councillors|All councillors]]
+  * [[http://www.parlament.ch/e/dokumentation/webservices-opendata/Documents/webservices-info-dritte-e.pdf|API's doc]]
+  * [[https://github.com/douglas-watson/parl-scraping/tree/master/biography_retrieval|Code on github]]
+  * From those data, building of a file (light one) describing members of parliament ([[https://github.com/douglas-watson/parl-scraping/tree/master/biography_csv_extract|script on github in the same folder]])
+Fields are: 	id	cantonName	council	firstName	lastName	party	active	birthDate	gender	language	maritalStatus	militaryGrade	partyId	salutationLetter	workLanguage
+== Structure of the final files from Jérémie ==
+JSON file + its .csv counterpart for each Parliament session of the National Council from 1995.
+The same datasets are also available split as one JSON/CSV file per legislative session.
+== Graph data for Yannick ==
+graph.csv: edgeless with Source (bio url as id of person replying to) - Destination (bio url as id of person talking before) - Subject (id of subject under discussion) - Date (of intervention, YY.MM.DD)
+nodes.csv: nodelist with bio id - name - surname - canton - political group
