Hi all, The Chief Electoral Officer - Karnataka has published a new version of Electoral Rolls. These are image based PDFs that have to be converted to text based PDFs.
There is a need for additional compute resources to convert these large files. If anyone would like help with this, the process would entail running a python script (already made) on Google Colab and sharing the output folder on Google Drive. A more technical description of the process is detailed below. Please reach out to [email protected] (or call PG Bhat - 9900141232) to help out with this project, or in case of any queries. The full process: 1. Create a shared folder on Drive called 'ERMS' and give edit access to [email protected]. 2. He will create 3 subfolders: - *Code* - This will contain the script. There is no need for any software to be installed locally. - *Image files* - This houses the image files - *Text files* - where the script will write the results 3. Run the script on Colab (free account). The text files can then be downloaded from the drive folder Thank you for considering this request.
