Key Biodiversity Areas factsheets scraper, archive and backup system

We worked with the Key Biodiversity Areas team at Birdlife International to build a scraper of their World Database of Key Biodiversity Areas

This involved building a system of Python scripts to analyse which data were to be included, categorise it into a system of JSON files on Azure Cloud Storage and then an embed system on the Key Biodiversity Areas website to display the information.

The information included multiple searchable tables for species, habitats, threats and general information about the site and its assessment.

We also built a searchable table with multiple filters allowing sites in the factsheets to be searched (without direct access to the database).
