Digitizing Chile's Legislative Heritage
National Congress Library of Chile
The Challenge
The National Congress Library of Chile faced significant obstacles managing centuries of legislative records. Congressional protocols were stored as free-form text, making it difficult to identify and extract specific information.
Decades of records required scalable solutions. Conversations covered diverse topics with numerous speakers and various legislative actions.
Our Approach
Developed a robust data analysis pipeline tailored to the Library's needs, extracting and structuring information from vast archives. Key innovations: speaker identification analyzing and tagging speakers in each discussion, topic categorization mapping debated subjects, action tracking extracting proposals/confirmations/decisions, and structured database creation for exploring legislative history.
