Structured data scraping/crawling/extraction is a major step up from the simpler text and image extraction now familiar from generalist content curation tools like Scoop.it. It's about recognizing and extractic specific types of structured data like product names, product prices, taxes, brand names etc.
Structured data extraction used to be the priviledge of a few high tech companies like Google.
It looks like it will soon be everybody's tool ! Delete the scoop?
Are you sure you want to delete this scoop?
