I accidentally started a movement – Policing the Police by scraping court data
The community has been writing scrapers since the beginning, but it's a huge task. We've also written scraper templates, since many counties use the same systems. https://github.com/Police-Data-Accessibility-Project/PDAP-Sc...

This Transparency Project Is Creating a Massive Collection of Police Data - started on Reddit
I found the other github you probably saw at https://github.com/Police-Data-Accessibility-Project/Police-Data-Accessibility-Project with some meeting minutes that just go over some very basic scope stuff. There was also one for a meeting on 5/31/2020 where the team members introduce themselves and state their experience. Many of them do have a lot of software dev experience, which is great for a project like this, but if that's the case why have they not written more than a half dozen shitty scrapers in 10 months? Again this just feels like fluff.
