About Climate Observer
Climate Observer is an independent, data-focused project built to explore how our climate is changing over time. It brings together global weather station data, statistical analysis, and clear visualisations to make long-term climate patterns easier to understand.
Project Goals
The goal of Climate Observer is to provide an objective view of climate trends using real measurements rather than headlines alone. By focusing on observed data, the project aims to highlight patterns, variability, and long-term change in a transparent and objective way.
Global Data Coverage
The project uses data from hundreds of weather stations worldwide using various sources. These weather stations have wide geographic spread, aiming to capture climate trends across different continents and climate zones.
Methodology
Data Collection
Weather observations are collected from various sources including NOAA, Meteostat and NASA. The focus is on data quality and effort has been made to remove outliers and incorrect measurements.
Statistical Analysis
Statistical methods are applied to identify trends, seasonal effects, and anomalies. Visualisations are used to make these results interpretable and easy to understand.
Context & Interpretation
News and articles provide context to the data, connecting observed trends to recent news and broader discussions on climate and environmental change.
Why This Project Exists
Climate Observer exists to encourage careful, data-driven discussion about climate change. By making the data and methods visible, the project invites exploration, scrutiny, and informed conversation.
