The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) have made several datasets available online. One of these datasets is the CDBS (Consolidated Public Database System). The dataset is huge and can be downloaded as separate data files but importing these into a database is somewhat of a challenge since table definitions are not delivered in a standard format and the data files come as character delimited text files. To make the data more accessible this tool automates the download, extracting, and parsing of the data files into database scripts containing both table definitions and actual scripts with the data. The scripts have been tested with MySQL. Support for other databases have not been examined although the insert scripts are ANSI SQL and should be compatible with most databases whereas the table definitions scripts probably need to be tweaked to support other databases.
