Recent initiatives such as the emerging Linked Data Web are providing semantic access to available data by porting existing resources to the semantic web using different technologies, such as database-semantic mapping and scraping. Nevertheless, existing scraping solutions are based on ad-hoc solutions complemented with graphical interfaces for speeding up the scraper development. This article proposes a generic framework for web scraping based on semantic technologies. This framework is structured in three levels: scraping services, semantic scraping model and syntactic scraping. The ?rst level provides an interface to generic applications or intelligent agents for gathering information from the web at a high level. The second level de?nes a semantic RDF model of the scraping process, in order to provide a declarative approach to the scraping task. Finally, the third level provides an implementation of the RDF scraping model for speci?c technologies. The work has been validated in a scenario that illustrates its application to mashup technologies}, url = {https://oa.upm.es/13159/} }
