Web technologies are increasingly relevant to scientists working with data, for both
accessing data and creating rich dynamic and interactive displays. The XML and JSON
data formats are widely used in Web services, regular Web pages and JavaScript code,
and visualization formats such as SVG and KML for Google Earth and Google Maps. In
addition, scientists use HTTP and other network protocols to scrape data from Web
pages, access REST and SOAP Web Services, and interact with NoSQL databases and text
search applications. This book provides a practical hands-on introduction to these
technologies, including high-level functions the authors have developed for data scientists.
It describes strategies and approaches for extracting data from HTML, XML, and JSON
formats and how to programmatically access data from the Web. Along with these general
skills, the authors illustrate several applications that are relevant to data scientists,
such as reading and writing spreadsheet documents both locally and via GoogleDocs,
creating interactive and dynamic visualizations, displaying spatial-temporal displays
with Google Earth, and generating code from descriptions of data structures to read
and write data. These topics demonstrate the rich possibilities and opportunities
to do new things with these modern technologies. The book contains many examples and
case-studies that readers can use directly and adapt to their own work
