Abstract: Data extraction and conversion processes and apparatuses are described according to some aspects. In one aspect, a data extraction and conversion process comprises applying at least one template to the information sources, analyzing the data from the information sources according to the templates, thereby generating parsed data values, and writing the parsed data values from the information sources into a common format. The templates comprise a plurality of parsing steps in a multi-path configuration. In another aspect, an apparatus comprises a computer-readable medium having a plurality of parsing step modules and configured to receive data from the information sources, an input device configured to select and arrange at least two parsing step modules as parsing steps in a multi-path configuration, thereby creating a template, and processing circuitry configured to generate parsed data values by analyzing data from the information sources according to the template. The processing circuitry also writes the parsed data values in a common format. Both the computer-readable medium and the input device are operably connected to the processing circuitry.

Abstract: A system and method for extracting a plurality of structured data from one or more information sources. The method comprises receiving the information sources, receiving at least one pattern descriptor selected from a graphical user interface, and receiving one or more templates with each templates having at least one pattern descriptor. The method then proceeds to apply the one or more templates to the information sources. The method generates the plurality of structured data in a common format by parsing the information sources with the templates. The method stores the structured data in the common format.
