Air Quality in Nairobi

In this project, you’ll work with data from one of Africa’s largest open data platforms, openAfrica. You’ll look at air quality data from Nairobi, Lagos, and Dar es Salaam; and build a time series model to predict PM 2.5 readings throughout the day.

Some of the things you’ll learn in this project are:

  • How to get data by querying a MongoDB database.
  • How to prepare time series data for analysis.
  • How to build an autoregression model.
  • How to improve a model by tuning its hyperparameters.

This project consists of 5 Notebooks:

  1. Wrangling Data with MongoDB
  2. Linear Regression with Time
  3. Autoregressive Models
  4. ARMA Models and Hyperparameter Tuning
  5. Air Quality in Dar es Salaam
