An automated system and associated method for building a comprehensive database of a configurable entity that is available from one or more Web sites, while removing redundancies. The system merges data tree structures that contain redundant data into more tractable data tree structures where those redundancies have been removed. More specifically, a feature of the present system is to automate the process of collecting information from one or more Web sites and convert the raw data into a logically fashioned, non-redundant tree structure. Advantageously, Web users would be able to retrieve information stored on one or more Web pages and locally merge the data.
