LEPEZ, Héctor Ramón. Extraction, transformation and loading technique of meteorological stations data. Rev. cienc. tecnol. [online]. 2019, n.32, pp.1-10. ISSN 1851-7587.

Climatology and Meteorology are sciences that use data such as air temperature, humidity, wind or precipitation to take measurements; it is essential to have the largest amount of data to reduce the margin of error. These data are acquired by automatic meteorological stations that belong to public and to a lesser extent private organizations. Most data is published on the Internet, however, the required data is not always available in standard formats for information exchange. The objective of this research work is the construction of an algorithm for the acquisition of meteorological data, based on a technique known in English as web scraping. The process consists in the extraction, normalizing the data and then storing them, to be used by geographic tools or statistical analysis.

Palabras clave : Meteorology; Data; Algorithm; Acquisition; Scraping.
