Entscheidsuche.ch is a project to collect all publicly available Swiss court cases at one place in an open manner. We already got most of the cantons. Some cantons however are a bit harder to scrape - especially the cases from Berne. Use Scrapy(-Splash) to retrieve all cases published at the cantonal court in Berne.
You can find the cases here: here: http://www.zsg-entscheide.apps.be.ch/tribunapublikation/ http://www.vg-urteile.apps.be.ch/tribunapublikation/
Other courts that we still do not have are for example the federal administrative court and the non-leading cases of the federal court in the years 2000-2010.
To look at what court cases we already have, you can look at http://tech4transparency.com
Challenges
Projects in need of patching, ideas of things to start - put your thinking caps on and take part in an open source challenge presented at the HACKnight! Contact us if you have any questions, or add one of your own through GitHub or after logging in here. We recommend that every Challenge proposes tasks on several levels:
NEWBIE challenges about becoming a user of a product/project and learning the ropes.
INTERMEDIATE tasks for people with experience in the project and/or the technical domains involved.
EXPERT challenges will include things like security testing, performance optimisation and other advanced topics.
