Olympedia Olympic Results Scraper

🏟️ Build Olympic placement datasets from Olympedia

For sports analysts, researchers, data journalists, and developers, Olympedia Olympic Results Scraper follows public Olympedia result pages and saves normalized rows for overall event placements. Each row keeps the published event, competitor, rank, medal, result, and source details together for analysis and data workflows.

• Build a table of placements from one public result page with Olympic Event Results.
• Review placements from the 1988 edition with Olympedia 1988.
• Filter returned placements to a country or NOC with Olympic Results By Country.
• Compare placements for one sport across an edition with Olympic Results By Sport.
• Keep only podium placements with Olympic Medal Results.
• Explore Paris 2024 event placements with Olympic Results 2024.

🧾 Normalized Olympic placement rows

Each saved row represents one overall placement from a public Olympedia event-result table. The row includes the event and edition context when the source publishes it, the athlete or team, placement details, named round results, qualification labels, and the source page URL. Missing source values are not guessed.

Use edition and optional sport selection to follow linked public pages. You can also submit exact event-result pages when you already know the page you need. Direct event pages may not expose edition or sport context, so those values remain unavailable when the source does not publish a reliable relationship.

🚀 Choose an edition, sport, or event page

1. Choose Olympic editions and sports or Exact event-result pages.
2. Add edition names such as Paris 2024, and optionally add sport names such as Athletics.
3. For the direct-page method, add exact public URLs such as https://www.olympedia.org/results/2008700.
4. Choose Selected sources for the submitted source set, or Broader linked results for a wider set of related public result pages.
5. Add country or NOC values, or turn on Medalists only, when you need a narrower dataset.
6. Set a placement limit only when you want the run to stop early, then open the default dataset.

Each run uses one coherent source selection and filter set. If Maximum placements is empty, the Actor returns all available placements until the source is exhausted.

❓ FAQ

Can I submit one exact Olympedia event page?

Yes. Choose Exact event-result pages and submit one or more public https://www.olympedia.org/results/<id> URLs with an overall results table.

Can I select a whole Olympic edition and one sport?

Yes. Choose Olympic editions and sports, add an edition name, and add one or more sport names when you want a narrower linked source set.

Does each round become a separate row?

No. Each row is one overall event placement. Named round values from the overall table stay in roundResults; detailed round tables are not separate output rows.

Can I keep only medalists or one country?

Yes. Turn on Medalists only for published podium placements, or add country names or NOC codes to filter the returned placements.

What happens when a source does not publish a field?

The Actor keeps the source data as published and does not infer missing event, competitor, placement, round, or qualification values.

Are country medal totals included?

No. The dataset contains event-level placements. It does not create separate aggregate country or medal-table rows.

What does an empty maximum placements field do?

It returns all available placements until the source is exhausted.
