We have a scraper for this sort of site. The sites all look subtly different, so it doesn't always work, and needs a bit of setting up.

* Babergh
* Barnet
* Basingstoke
* Bassetlaw (no postcodes)
* Bolton
* Bridgenorth
* Bury
* Cambridgeshire
* Canterbury
* Carlisle
* Croydon
* Derby
* East Lindsey

* New Forest National Park
* New Forest District Council

* North Wiltshire
* Oldham
* Renfrewshire
* South Bedfordshire
* Southwark
* Suffolk Coastal
* Surrey Heath (looks normal, but hard to get to. https, cookies, and javascript nonsense)
* Wychavon (maybe)

We have a scraper for this sort of site, which can be distinguished by the search url ending in searchPageLoad.do.

Known sites of this sort are:

* Cumbria
* Dorset
* Lincolnshire
* Somerset
* Suffolk
* West Sussex

All of these are county council sites for councils which are only responsible for things like minerals, waste, and the council's own applications. This means that they tend to have fairly few applications.

There is now a scraper written in python for FastWeb sites. The ones that I know of so far are:

* Craven
* Eastleigh
* Eden
* Mansfield
* South Lakeland
* Sutton
* Welwyn-Hatfield

Redcar is listed as being FastWeb here: http://www.brent.gov.uk/egr.nsf/SCV?ReadForm&View=UseByProductName&Category=FastPLANNING but this doesn't seem to be the case.

It appears that what we actually want is got to by following the weekly list link in many cases. This takes you to a date search page. The general search page often has no date.

# Introduction #
Proposed development of a scraper for the Plan-It system.

# Authorities #

* ~~Hounslow: http://planning.hounslow.gov.uk/planningv2/planning_search.aspx~~
* ~~Kingston: http://maps.kingston.gov.uk/isis_main/planning/planning_search.aspx~~
* Richmond (London): http://www2.richmond.gov.uk/PlanData2/Planning_Search.aspx
* Wiltshire: http://www.wiltshireplanningapplications.co.uk/planning_search.aspx

# Notes #

* There is a limit in the search form to the number of queries but this is not validated in software (tested with Richmond). It is therefore possible to search for a larger number of applications than the maximum of 500.
* There are distinct differences between the implementations that means that a generic scraper will not work easily. Since scrapers exist for Hounslow and Kingston the plan is now to create a generic scraper (or one for each) for the remaining two authorities on this system.

# List of Planning Authorities #

I'm planning on having a list here of all the planning authorities in the UK, and the urls of any application search facility they have (along with a note maybe of what sort of site it is if I recognise it...)

The list of authorities I am getting them from is here http://www.theplanningdirectory.co.uk/auto/index.html.

Another useful site which lists the planning software used by different councils: http://www.brent.gov.uk/egr.nsf/SCV?ReadForm&View=UPTLA&Category=Planning

The following authorities have a similar application search mechanism. The urls all end in searchparam.asp.

* East Northamptonshire (also has a PublicAccess, which seems to contain more applications)
* Harborough (also has a PublicAccess, which seems a slightly different set of applications...)
* Rutland

I've made a scraper for these, which is currently called RutlandLike (as I can't see a more sensible name for it). It is now only actually in use for Rutland, as East Northants and Harborough also have PublicAccess sites, which appear to be more recent.

# Introduction #

The UKPlanning website has a large collection of applications from a range of local authorities, however they have very strict usage terms wich are copied below:

_The contents of these pages are copyright © IDOX Group PLC 2003 – 2008._

_Reproduction or data extraction of part or all of the contents in any form is prohibited unless for personal, non commercial use. None of the content of this web site may be copied or otherwise incorporated into or stored in any other web site, electronic retrieval system, publication or other work in any form (whether hard copy, electronic or other). For the avoidance of doubt, framing of this site or any part of it is not permitted without express permission of IDOX Group PLC._

# Discussion #

If such a policy did not exist this site would be a fantastic source of information, they seem like a very switched on technology company. I am interested in how much legal founding their statement is, surely the information is in the public domain?

I am very aware that we do not want to get involved in any form of legal wrangling with them but if we could put together a valid argument for our right to access this information then maybe they would be keen to work with us?

Does anyone know if there is a legal difference between the source of data and the copyright of data? Surely it doesn't matter who publishes something - if the information is in the public domain then anyone can copy it?

Of course there is also the question of etiquette and it would be rude to screen scrape their site when they clearly do not want people to. Basically I'm thinking out loud here.
