# Climate Analysis and Prediction Project

## Overview
Investigating temperature changes over time and predicting future temperature patterns regionally and globally stands as the central challenge of this project. To accomplish this, we will employ time series forecasting methods such as neural networks, ARIMA and SARIMAX on the GISTEMP v4 dataset from NASA.
