Dear R users, I am fronting my firts time series problem. I have hourly temperature data for 3 years (from 01/01/2013 to 5/02/2016). I would like to use those in order to PREDICT TEMPERATURE OF THE NEXT HOURS according to the observations.
A subset of the data look like this: date <- rep(seq(as.Date("14-01-01"), as.Date("14-01-03"), by="days"), 24) hour <-rep(c(paste0("0",0:9,":00:00"), paste0(10:23,":00:00")),3) temperature <- c(6.1, 6.8, 6.5, 7.2, 7.1, 7.9, 5.9, 6.8, 7.7, 9.5, 12.6, 14.0, 15.9, 17.3, 17.5, 17.2, 15.0, 14.1, 13.1, 11.7, 10.9, 11.0, 11.6, 11.0, 11.2, 11.0, 11.0, 11.4, 12.2, 13.7, 12.9, 12.9, 12.8, 13.4, 13.9, 14.9, 16.6, 16.0, 15.2, 15.4, 14.7, 14.6, 13.3, 13.0, 13.8, 13.1, 12.0, 11.9, 11.8, 11.6, 11.0, 11.2, 11.6, 10.6, 9.5, 9.8, 9.9, 11.7, 15.3, 18.6, 20.7, 22.2, 22.2, 20.8, 20.2, 18.3, 15.6, 13.6, 12.8, 13.1, 13.7, 14.7) dfExample <- data.frame(date, hour, temperature) So as to plot 3 years ( from 01/01/2013 to 31/12/2015) I use this code and obtained the attached picture. It is observed seasonality. tempdf4 <- ts(df4$temperature, frequency=365*24*3) plot.ts(tempdf4) Am I doing it well? Could you help me with any information in this type of problem (mainly with the prediction). For example, if I want to use Arima, according with my data structure, what are the arguments of the funcion?? fit=Arima(df4$temperature, seasonal=list(order=c(xxx,xxx,xxx),period=xxx) plot(forecast(fit)) I could use also some predictions from other source that I am collecting since January, 2016. But I would prefer to understand the simplest way to solve the problem and then, progressively, understand more complex approaches. Thank you very much for any kind of help. ------ Aurora González Vidal Phd student in Data Analytics for Energy Efficiency Faculty of Computer Sciences University of Murcia @. aurora.gonzal...@um.es T. 868 88 7866 www.um.es/ae
