We want to find the following "up-to-date" (2012 or at least 2011) data to include them on our database.
1) Geo related information
World countries, continents, capitals, major cities, demographics/population, area, currency, most important events (history), monuments, map, photos + some more
2) Nature and Animals
a) World mountains, lakes, rivers, seas, forests, waterfalls, volcanos and their size, height and similar information
b) World animals names (+local/binomial names), categorized by their family(species) name, size, speed, conservation status, feeding, geo range, at least 2 clear medium size photos + some more
Successful applicant will and must use wikipedia and other reliable sources, but it is of high importance to find up2date sources, cause data will be used in an encyclopedia. Full information must be provided (for instance we expect to include all the countries, most famous mountains, animals etc, and not only a part of this information) and In case someone posseses or can somehow use web scraping for acquiring the aforementioned data then this would count as an advantage for the selection.
Specific database and entry forms are already prepared and they will be used as the tool for data entry from the selected freelancer.
