🇨🇱 Chile Open Data Scraper

🚀 Export Chile's national open data in seconds. Browse the full datos.gob.cl catalog of 10,000+ datasets or pull rows from any dataset resource. Covers demographic, transport, ministry budget, climate, and health data. No login, no manual CSV stitching.

The Chile Open Data Scraper taps the official datos.gob.cl portal and runs in two complementary modes. Catalog mode lists every dataset with title, organization, license, resources, and tags. Dataset mode streams every row from any chosen tabular resource.

Coverage spans national ministries, decentralized agencies, regional governments, and partner publishers, covering health, transport, climate, demographics, ministry budgets, education, economy, and public security. This Actor returns clean structured records ready to download as CSV, Excel, JSON, or XML.

🎯 Target Audience	💡 Primary Use Cases
LATAM market researchers, climate scientists, policy analysts, NGOs, civic-tech builders, ML researchers	Budget audits, climate trend research, transport-network analysis, demographic dashboards, transparency tools

📋 What the Chile Open Data Scraper does

Two complementary workflows in a single run:

• 📚 Catalog mode. List every dataset with publisher, license, tags, and resource list.
• 📊 Dataset mode. Stream every row from any tabular resource.
• 🔍 Search the catalog. Filter datasets by keyword across title, description, and tags.
• 🆔 Auto-resolve resources. Provide just a dataset slug and the Actor picks the first usable resource.

Each record carries publisher metadata in catalog mode, or the original row schema preserved under data in dataset mode, plus the source identifiers and a timestamp.

💡 Why it matters: Chile's open-data catalog is one of the most comprehensive in Latin America, but the column schemas vary wildly across publishers. This Actor handles catalog discovery, pagination, and row streaming so your analysts and researchers can focus on the question, not the plumbing.

📊 Data fields

Each record includes: data, datasetId, kind, license, metadataModified, organization, recordId, resourceId, resources, scrapedAt, tags, title. These field names come straight from the actor's dataset schema, so what you see here is what lands in your dataset.
