Time-series data

The Ministry is migrating nzmaths content to Tāhurangi.           
Relevant and up-to-date teaching resources are being moved to Tāhūrangi (tahurangi.education.govt.nz). 
When all identified resources have been successfully moved, this website will close. We expect this to be in June 2024. 
e-ako maths, e-ako Pāngarau, and e-ako PLD 360 will continue to be available.

A data set gathered over time. For one object, such as climate in Rolleston, Canterbury, the values of a variable (or several variables) are obtained at successive times. Usually there are equal intervals between the successive times.

Example

The maximum temperature, rainfall, maximum atmospheric pressure and maximum wind gust speed in Rolleston, recorded daily.

Note: At Level Eight a common approach to modelling time-series data considers the data to have four components; trend component, cyclical component, seasonal component and irregular component.
