Development Assessment Panels #77

Open mlandauer opened 4 years ago

mlandauer commented 4 years ago

This issue has been automatically created by PlanningAlerts for Development Assessment Panels

It uses the scraper planningalerts-scrapers/development_assessment_panel_applications

Only close this issue once the authority is working again on PlanningAlerts. Otherwise a new issue will just automatically created. Also, if there is a duplicate issue close the other one in favour of this one.

From looking around, it seems they no longer publish this info in PDF form.

Found a PDF with the current development assessment panel applications linked to from https://www.dplh.wa.gov.au/about/development-assessment-panels/current-dap-applications-and-information

mlandauer commented 3 years ago

The PDF seems to mostly have addresses with just lot numbers so that looks pretty useless. Might be worth trying to see if the ESRI app that @CloCkWeRX mentioned above has an open API. ESRI, the application does but we need to find out if they open it for this particular case.

For the time being I'm just going to comment out the scraper so that it doesn't error at least (to try to reduce noise)

twcau commented 1 year ago

There is now a PDF, and a new permanent home for this information:

info_url: https://www.wa.gov.au/government/document-collections/current-development-assessment-panel-applications-and-information

url: https://www.wa.gov.au/system/files/YYYY-MM/current-dap-applications.pdf

YYYY: Four digit current year MM: Two digit current month

I don’t have the skills to even consider updating the scraper, but would be good to see WA DAP data back in PlanningAlerts.

@mlandauer PDF scrapers out there now? :/ does this look doable?
