About this project
Pardonometer is an exhaustive data analysis and investigation on the use of governmental pardons in Spain since 1996. Through data scraping of the pardon announcements in the Official Gazette, the project classifies and visualizes all the pardons granted to date, allowing readers to quickly and easily filter pardons by type of offense, compare the annual data and check the use made by different administrations of this prerogative.
Pardonometer is a pioneering journalistic project and an effective tool of accountability and control of public powers.
