The project consists of two stages: 1. Write a script that converts and restructures data in a large PDF file (3821 pages, see uploaded example file for the structure of the data) to a .csv file that can be used for statistical analysis. This should be done with writing a script in R or Python (i.e. not manually entering the data). 2. Match municipality names in the new .csv file with an existing file containing the correct spelling of these municipalities and their unique identifiers (see uploaded .xlsx file). This will require some manual work.

Hi, I hope all's well with you. I see you'r looking for a developer proficient in PDF/Excel conversation. Your current project reminds me several my PDF/Excel projects, last one I've made recently in freelancer.com for USA customer. He needed: "..I have large PDF files that i need converted to Excel. These are custom files and will NOT be able to converted by standard PDF conversion files..." . I did it via software's Adobe Acrobat PRO XI and A-PDF to Excel and the main - with my own vba modules via Ms Access. I'll do your PDF conversation just on your demand. So here is a my introduction: I’m a ms Access/Excel/VB programmer, a mathematician and a full time developer with a strong background developing a wide range of accounting, economical, statistical and mixed type projects using Ms Access, Ms Excel, VBA, ADO, SQL including projects for start-up companies and small businesses. For over the last 20 years I’ve worked in a variety of industries. I have a deep passion for coding and guarantee that all of developing is 100% original. I highly value professionalism and hold myself strictly accountable to represent my client’s brand. I aim to form a long-term working relationship. Please, let me know what is needed to secure this bid! Thank you for your consideration. Regards, Zura

Hello, I have studied the course of Data mining and I have code machine leaning algorithms as well. I am well familiar with Python. after doing tons of lab work starting from simple dictionaries to prediction of demand supply gap of Uber, I can at least say that I am well proficient with python. I know how to use numpy, dictionaries, pandas, matplotlib, web scrapping tools like scrappy, openliburl, beauriful soup, and others. if you are familiar with Python, you must also be knowing that file handling is really easy in Python. In our final project, data was given in CSV files and we had to read those files and structure the data into something meaningful - creating a model. considering all above, the task you have mentioned seems really of beginner level to me. I can definitely do it! It seems good motivation for future products and to gain some good reputation on freelancer since I am a newbie here. so your quality and timely work is guaranteed. please do look to consider me for this project. I won't disappoint you. Rather you would be greatly satisfied with my work!
