Something I think you'll really appreciate is that they have an application with a complete API Spec so you can scrape data any way you like and import it into the application as long as you follow the API spec: https://github.com/opendatapolicing/opendatapolicing/blob/main/src/main/resources/openapi3-enUS.yaml
What are some alternatives?
